The house had everything we needed (dishes, pans, plenty of towels). I love the grocery store being right down the street and the bus stop to downtown as well. I rented a car but rarely used it. The backyard was especially beautiful and lovely for morning coffee. The only negative thing was I would say the house is not very accessible if anyone has trouble walking. The house is up a very steep hill from the store and bus stop, as well as having stairs. There are rental scooters but they also had trouble going up the hill. Besides that, the location was perfect. ##### Mary W.

The fully stocked kitchen made cooking a breeze. There is a great grocery a close walk away. Instructions were super clear, and decor was thoughtful and personable. ##### Brandy P.
