Misled by VRBO Listing
I have never left a bad VRBO review and have rented many. But future renters need to be made aware of this listing. Upon entry into the building, the walls were white and very dirty/worn. There was a barking dog on the bottom floor apartment by the entry door that did not stop barking. Upon entering the actual unit, the walls only got worse, the blinds were broken with missing pieces, the furniture looked as if it was found on the side of the street, did not match the pictures, and the smell was horrible. We immediately left and had to rent a hotel as the owner was unreachable by us and VRBO even a week later. My recommendation is to not stay here as this unit has not received any attention for many many years and the owner is clearly not qualified as the "Premier Host" rating he somehow received.

Everything I Expected
I very much enjoyed my stay here. There were no surprises, and everything was just as it was presented. It is an older home in a quaint, well established neighborhood. I was concerned for parking on the original brick-paved street, but always had a spot right in front whenever I came home. The home was clean and comfortable. Some may say it needs updating, but everything worked just fine. I took advantage of the office desk and chair to catch up on some work, and the WiFi connection was excellent. The Smart TV streamed movies without a hitch. I would stay here again, and recommend it to anyone who can appreciate the nature and character of a well kept, older home. Some in my age bracket may even call it nostalgic!

Wonderful
This place is such a wonderful VRBO, its a very quiet, very adorable place, in an excellent neighborhood that's within walking distance to everything! Wonderful hosts that always were in touch if there were any problems, which we had none at all. One of my most favorite VRBO stays, very well put together check in process and apartment. Can't wait to go back.

Super clean and great location
The apartment was very clean and located in a great neighborhood. The communication and check-in instructions were excellent. The apartment has a lot of charm and character—could use a coat of paint but that is a very minor critique.
