This house is beautiful and well maintained. Very cozy and welcoming, we enjoyed our stay immensely. The communication from the host was timely and detailed. Parking is on the street, so depending on how many guests you have, you may want to carpool. That being said, parking was not a problem so don't let deter you from staying here. Also, we did hear the train that the host mentions, but only if we were outside. We never heard it while inside the house, and it never woke any of us up. We also walked to places to eat (Pike St. Cafe, Agave & Rye). Would definitely stay there again!

It is a beautiful century home. The owners did a wonderful job renovating while keeping the historical charm. There was only one issue we had and that is proximity to the railroad tracks. The trains ran all night squeaking loudly, even causing the house to shut her at times. We never had a problem parking, which was a plus. If you are not a light sleeper, we feel you are 100% love staying in this home!
