    The list of rules are ridiculous, such as my husband was going to mail me my glasses but guest aren't allowed to receive any mail, they told me to rent a post office box. They leave you a starter set up, 1/2 roll of TP in each bathroom, 2 dishwasher pods, one laundry pod and 3 towels for 2 women for 1 week. Even though it was very warm, thermostat can't go below 72. I think if the owner sounded and acted more welcoming, less like guests were nickle and dimed we might have enjoyed it more.

    The home was between family's home and hospital. It was a great place.

    Very nice home with a new feel to it. Very clean, well appointed, good location. With three (queen bed) bedrooms and two full bathrooms it works well for multiple people. The kitchen has all the utensils you need to fix meals. Also included are a large washer and dryer, dishwasher, and smart TVs in all bedrooms and the living room, and plenty of towels and extra sheets. The management company is very responsive. As an example, I reported that there was only one teaspoon with the otherwise well supplied silverware. Two days later a package was delivered with six teaspoons in it.Overall, a very comfortable 16 day stay!
