"The very best thing about this home is the location - it was so close to everything. We could walk everywhere we wanted to go. We loved sitting in the little courtyard. The owner left excellent instructions on how to operate the windows, etc. Would prefer to communicate directly with the owner, but Pass the Keys did a good job of responding."
