Summary: The layout inside beautiful. There were a few things that were surprising. A rack in the master bedroom with linens, unaware if they were dirty or clean. Bath linen washcloths were not available and instructions on parking permits left us without a pass for our first overnight stay. It would have been good to know we were in an area where rats were a constant. That was not an assumption anyone would have made. Though parking was limited we were able to park on the street every day. The place inside was clean, overall there were some areas of transparency that were left out. I apologize but I am not taking pictures of rats or roaches, my host knows that they surround the property. Maybe meet your tenant day one. It's up north, but some visitors may be looking for a southern introduction.
