Very good

Our stay was awesome! This home is lovely with a fantastic back yard and multiple decks. The location is very quiet and relaxing, but very close to an assortment of great restaurants. Our host Andrea was excellent checking in everyday to see if everything was to our liking. All amenities were provided for. It was an excellent stay and we will be back!!
The house was very clean and in a good neighborhood. There are a lot of steps so would not recommend to people with small children. Only had sample sizes of toiletries.

Burst pipe. Terrible experience.
In the middle of our stay, a pipe burst on the bottom floor spewing some nasty smelling water everywhere. The host, Andrea with TriangleBnB, offered us another one of their properties to stay in. Unfortunately, the new property was a big step down: much smaller, no parking on site, in a worse neighborhood across the street from an abandoned building surrounded by barb wire.The pipe incident, the mid-trip move, and the worse property made this trip extremely tough on me, my wife, and our young son.
I actually stayed at this property for several weeks due to being displaced from my home for repairs. It's a really great space for long term stays in that you have access to all the closet space, etc. The natural light in the house is AMAZING. My dog really enjoyed the back yard, and the neighborhood was super friendly. My only comment - in order to access a bathroom or bedroom, you must take the stairs. This was no problem for me, but something to consider for those who have trouble with walking, etc.

About the host
Hosted by Andrea Douglass
I am a pharmacist at Duke Hospital who stumbled into the world of property management and real estate. It all began when I started renting out my personal properties as short-term rentals. I quickly fell in love with managing properties and interacting with guests, which led me to obtain my real estate license. As my passion for this field grew, I expanded my services to manage other people's properties as well. The business became so busy that I had to reduce my hours at Duke Hospital to dedicate more time to it. I am deeply passionate about traveling and exploring different properties and areas, which fuels my love for this profession even more. I am dedicated to providing exceptional service to both property owners and guests, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for all involved.
