Not a good neighborhood, at all - very scary
The house was very roomy, nice and clean, although it was laid out kind of odd. Some of the light switches were confusing, and didn't seem to work right--but that could be expected in an old home.
We had some hiccups checking in, such as getting through the double locked gate and front door, and figuring out where we were supposed to park our car (the driveway was fenced off, so you cannot park there).
Unfortunately, there is only on-street parking, which we found out to be a bit of a problem, as there were people doing drugs behind our car, and several of the same cars kept driving around the block (over and over) for whatever reasons. It seems like all of the neighboring businesses, hotels, and apartments have high security fences, gates, keypads, and even "armed guards," according to several posted signs--but not this place.
Ultimately, our kids were very scared from all of the yelling and screaming, coming from outside, all night long. This was made worse, with the fact that there are no blinds in the dining room, front room, and most of the sitting areas.
After the first "sleepless night," we decided to walk away from the rest of the reservation, and stay somewhere else during our trip. The host wasn't any help on this, and ultimately blamed us for "not contacting the police."
Walking away turned out to be the right thing to do - as according to the local police department, there was a shooting just a few houses away, from this rental.
Naturally, we won't be back.
