Explanations and comments:
She's very prompt, and comes either that day or the next. I burned the carpet, so I might not get my full deposit back, but I also lost my key and she's not taking anything off for that. She's very warm and flexible and lives around the corner, so she's always available and eager to help in any situation. She even gave us old wine glasses of hers and some lawn furniture.

Neighborhood & Location
Are your neighbors towns-people, students, or a mix? Mix
For whom is the noise level appropriate? Sleeping baby
Problems with location? None of the above

Comments on the neighborhood:
Families and quiet students, bikes in yard, far enough away that you feel like you're in a neighborhood but still within a 100 minute walk of anywhere.
