It could use a new rug in front room. It was a shaggy rug interesting to walk on. Fan was dirty. Has 3 window air units could use a clean. Musty like one of the other reviews if you have allergies I would not recommend. Bed is a little soft and you roll to center. I expected old/rustic and it is just that. It was fine and an adventure for two night.

The house was quaint and perfect for our retreat away without the kids. It was walkable to everything and very safe feeling. We enjoyed watching the 5k run past the front porch. We walked everywhere from the house. Air conditioning was cool. Only tricky part was letting in natural light without being entirely open to the front street. May be nice to have a sheer curtain instead of roll up shades. We walked to a welcoming brewery Pensacola Bay Brewery, dinner at Hub Stacey’s with incredibly fast service and great food. Breakfast at Fosko’s. Cooled off on quirky couches at Odd Colony. Walked to Palafox Pier and toured the free Pensacola Archeology museum. Loved this quaint cottage and would come back!
