    This property truly surpassed our expectations. We were a party of 7, ranging in age from 18 to 82, in from Cleveland, Baltimore, and England to attend my son’s graduation from OSU. Firstly, the location was amazing, a very short distance to the University, to the Short North Arts district, and German village. Parking was very easy on the street. Secondly, the bedrooms were amazing. There were four on the second floor, and one on the third floor, and all were very thoughtfully designed— very visually appealing, with luggage racks, tasteful artwork, and closets in all. Storage was great. The third floor, master suite allowed some privacy when you just need a moment. Thirdly, having three full bathrooms (one in the third floor master, one on the second floor, and one in the basement) was terrific for a party of our size. It was so nice for the kids not to have to share with the grandparents (or frankly, with us :) ). Everybody could get ready on time for events without waiting for the bathroom. Fourthly, the kitchen was very well set up, we cooked two full gourmet dinners while we were there, and the dining table seats eight, which frankly is hard to find in a rental home. Fifthly, there was nice outdoor space in the form of a front porch with comfortable chairs and a back patio (didn’t use that but looked nice). Finally, it was a very beautiful home, which might not mean much to some people, but which greatly added to our experience. Would give more stars !

    Megan as an awesome host! Her home is beautifully updated and the floor plan was great for a bigger group. She also had items for little ones which was helpful as we had a 2 year old with us. The location was easy to get to things in Columbus and the suburbs. Parking was easy with the permits she provided electronically as well.

    The Century House was perfect. High quality home. Well furnished with thoughtful amenities and supplies provided. Sound machines and nightlights were a nice touch. Lights, luggage racks and hangers in the closets were helpful. Very clean. Kid friendly.

    We had plans around OSU and the Short North area, this location was perfect. The house is absolutely stunning, and the setup makes it feel very private even though it’s in the city. Our group appreciated the multiple living spaces and bathrooms. Like many urban areas there is a noticeable homeless population, so we did choose to drive rather than walk to nighttime activities. I would definitely consider staying here again, the host was wonderful.

    I truly mean this review. The house was amazing plenty of room many bedrooms. The furniture and lay out was beautiful. Kitchen was fully stocked with all the cooking utensils, plates, cups and everything else you could need. Complimentary coffee and expresso. Plenty of towels and wash rags. The bathroom also stocked with body wash, shampoo, conditioner, qtips, and flossers. Host was amazing making sure our stay was going well and making sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this host and property and will definitely be back in the future.
