Other Things to Note:
The rental is located in the heart of downtown, yet on a more residential street. There are some city noises such as trash trucks, ship horns, sirens, trains and vehicle traffic that you may not be accustomed to.
Guests should also know that rental is just the lower level of the house. The upstairs house is also a rental. The courtyard is shared with the guests in the main house upstairs. As this is an old house, you might hear the neighbors from time to time.
