Adequate
Clean rental with some thoughtful touches. Easy check in/out. Less than posh towels, bedding and decor. Stairs and top of stairs dangerous if not fully engaged. Great location. Would not stay in again because of encumburance of stairs and the only bathroom being on second floor.

Great service and perfect location
From booking to check out the entire stay was an absolute pleasure. Situated two blocks from Schiller Park in the heart of German Village, one can hardly beat the location for culture and walkability. Check-in was entirely automated and worked perfectly. The house was very clean and exactly as advertised. Our host provided all the amenities one would expect, from soap and towels in the bathroom to coffee and tea in the kitchen. Though parking was only on-street, I never had a problem finding a convenient spot. I would not hesitate to rent this property again the next time I am in town.

In town wedding stay.
Unfortunately, there were several electrical issues over the course of our stay which impacted our ability to have access to get ready for our events, as well as loss of all the food we had in the refrigerator and freezer, unbeknownst to us until it was too late. It would have been a good gesture if the host would have given some form of credit for this issue, but this was not offered or provided.

German Village long weekend
Every thing was very nice and well kept. The only downside was the lack of close parking. Could use more than one hand towel and a clothes bar would be nice in the bathroom.

Came for OSU football and visit our son at college.
This place is quaint and more than adequate. Very clean and met all our basic needs. The area has many places within short walking distance including food, pubs, treats, etc. Public park two blocks away. Felt very safe within the neighborhood and residents were both friendly and engaging. Will try to book this site when visiting Columbus again.
