PSU Charm: Sunny 3BR Townhome 5 Mins From Campus!
The condo is good size and clean with everything we needed. There are 2 parking spots in front of the unit under a car port, but they are bit narrow for a full size truck. The location worked well for us, but it's not walking distance to campus (walking to the bus stop would work though)
