The building dates from 1852. Updates were very nice, and the unit was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The location was very good and reasonably close to most areas of interest, but usually had to take a car to reach them. The TV set up could have been better, as there was no cable for live shows, although you could access movies and short highlights of events that had previously aired. The unit sleeps 10, but really only 3 couples comfortably. There is a nice kitchen island around which you can seat 4 - 5 people, but no kitchen/dining table to seat all 6. The 3 bedrooms had no clothes dressers, so unpacking suitcases and placing clothes posed a challenge- 2 bedrooms had attached bathrooms with shelving, so clothes could be placed there. The third bedroom used the hallway bathroom, and the shelves were located outside of the room- a little inconvenient for dressing in one's room. The floors leaned to one side (probably due to the old earthquake), which added some charm to the age of the unit, but took a little getting used to. There is a damaged floor area on the porch balcony at the top of the stairs which gives slightly when you walk on it, which made some of the ladies a little nervous and probably should be repaired properly. Overall, though, my group of six had a good time and could overlook some of the forementioned shortcomings.
