Summary: We rented this perfectly-sized charming cottage in historic Alton for my daughter and her friend to stay in while she attended orientation at the nearby dental school and looked for long term housing.The house was very comfortable, nicely furnished, beautiful decorated and conveniently located in a quiet, safe neighborhood in one of the most historic cities in Illinois.Susan was the perfect host! Communication was prompt, friendly and always positive. I will be recommending her house to friends and family.
