James was a very kind and helpful host. He was always quick to respond and did his best to make our stay comfortable. The house is spacious, has plenty of beds (more than enough for a large family), and has a lovely backyard. The beds were clean, the bathroom was clean, and overall the house was well maintained. There are a few things that future guests should be aware of, especially for longer stays. Considering the size of the house, having only one bathroom can be challenging for larger groups. Also, we noticed that the bedrooms could benefit from having more shelves and drawers for clothing storage, especially for guests staying for several days. We also noticed quite a few insects, including spiders, centipedes, beetles, and many spider webs, especially in the basement area. This was the main thing that affected our comfort during the stay. Overall, James was a great host and very caring, and we appreciate his effort and communication.
