Summary: House was perfect for our stay. Everything is clean and updated, air conditioning worked great. 10 minutes from FIT, which was a must have for us. A short drive to the beach as well. Beth was easy to communicate with, and was helpful with restaurant recommendations, etc. We'll have a student at FIT for the next few years, and we would definitely rent this property again!
