"There were plenty of rooms for everyone which was amazing to come with a large group. We used it as a 5 bedroom. The 2 bathrooms are great too. There could have been more seating in the living room and maybe small lamps in the bedrooms. The hosts were helpful and they respond quickly. The neighborhood is safe and close to many convenient places like grocery store, dollar tree, CVS. There is also a lot of options for food close by. Highway is close and the house location was only 20 minutes...
