Beautiful Home / Extremely Clean / Poor Location

The house was extremely clean and very cute. All of the rooms were decorated well and you could tell the owner takes good care of the house. The owner was easy to communicate with and was quick to respond. They had all of the extra amenities stocked up-kcups, mouth wash, etc. The only downside was that it was in a poor location. It was on the corner of two busy streets and we heard the traffic and the trains way past midnight. It finally settled down at about 1 AM. I appreciate that the owner had a sound machine in the room as that did help a little. Overall I gave it a three star review all due to the noise of the location of the house. If the house was in a different location I would have given it a five star review.

Comfortable and Clean

We recently stayed at this charming old home and were absolutely delighted by the property and its decor. The house is very well maintained, with thoughtful touches that highlight its historical character while providing modern comforts. Every room had a unique charm, and we especially loved the cozy living room, amazing front porch and beautifully decorated bedrooms. Plus, we were thrilled that we could bring our dog, making our stay even more enjoyable!

Very cute!

Overall we loved this place. It was in a neighborhood where the houses were very close together so we had the drapes drawn the entire time. There are some windows where the drapes didn't cover the entire window. And the front doors (inner and outer) are both full glass doors with no coverings which left us feeling very exposed because the house is at a 4-way stop where cars are often stopped for many minutes at a time. Same with the sliding glass door to the deck. There is also a window on the landing of the stairs which can be looked into from the neighboring house and happens to look directly into the bathroom on the 2nd floor. It'd be nice to have a curtain there too.

Exceeded All Expectations

We booked this property for the eclipse because everything seemed to be booked in Cleveland for the Women’s NCAA basketball Final Four. We feel so fortunate that we found this lovely home. The home is tastefully and elegantly decorated. There is everything here you need for your comfort. The host even knew we were coming for the eclipse and left glasses and eclipse themed snacks. Oh, there were fresh flowers on the dining room table. All the dishes, appliances, linens and furniture were comfortable and stylish. We enjoyed sitting on the private deck. There is plenty of space to park off the street. The TV offered many channels and the wifi worked great. We felt safe in this home in this neighborhood. Communication with the host was outstanding. The home sincerely exceeded expectations. I highly recommend. We only wish we could have stayed more nights, as we really enjoyed our visit and were sad to check out.

An Oasis

I rarely leave reviews but have to on this one. It’s amazing!! The attention to every detail is unmatched with any other we’ve rented. Women: there’s even a jar of new hair bands in the bathroom! There’s so many areas to sit, relax, read a good book, have a glass of wine. Highly recommend this rental!
