The house was easy to find and met our needs perfectly. There was plenty of sleeping spaces (6 sorority sisters!) and gathering spaces. We found ourselves sitting around the table sharing stories for a big part of our time in the house as this was a warm and comfortable spot close to the kitchen. The host was easily accessible and helpful throughout the process. We'd stay here again for sure!
