steep steps
This stay reminded us of 'going to camp' -- a few unexpected surprises. Creative photos don't show the lack of cramped yard space, not so inviting outdoor space, proximity to railroad tracks (noisy trains, infrequent but loud), and steep steps.
Cozy is not the word I would use and other descriptors a bit exaggerated.
The exterior stairs are a bit nerve-wracking -- the inside railing ends a few feet before the top of the steep stairs. Difficult to carry luggage up and feel safe about it. Caution advised.
Price is fair for today's times, and lots of eclectic artwork and decor to explore, a few books, lots of local info.
Hosts very responsive and friendly via texts, though we didn't meet anyone in person.
Lots of little appreciated extras in the kitchen area.
Clean enough to be comfortable. Close enough to other Valley locations to enjoy.
I hope the toilet will be replaced before many others endure (sits very low, a child's toilet, runs loudly and most of the time you to jiggle the handle to stop the noise). Anyone using the toilet during the night wakes up anyone else staying with you, and probably the folks downstairs too?
