House in Dogtown walking distance to the Zoo and Restaurants

8/10 Good

"The check in process and communication was stellar. We knew we were staying in a historic home so expectations were correct. The neighborhood seemed safe and parking on the street was fine and shaded. For the age of the house, it was very clean. The amenities were nice! There were quite a few bugs(silver fish and millipedes) and strong smell of mildew or mold throughout the house(could smell it outside the front door too). Maybe some dehumidifiers would be helpful. Overall a great stay!"
