Lovely space, a bit loud with road noise, but the space makes up for it.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
Disliked: Location
Space was clean and provided fresh linens, but overall lacked security. The area is not the safest as it is directly near an overpass, which contributes to noise and high foot traffic. We saw evidence of past break ins on the doors, but it appeared little has been done to seal them properly as they let in drafts and had some malfunctioning old locks. In addition, many bedroom doors did not lock or close properly. The layout is odd so the front door, which is the only usable entrance, opens directly to bedroom 1 which made privacy difficult. This floorplan is mentioned briefly in one of the images, but not highlighted prominently in the property description. The historic doors between bedroom 1 and 2 are beautiful but be prepared to not be able to open and close them properly. The heating was also difficult to manage as turning on the heat downstairs led to it being overly hot upstairs.
