West End Whimsy was in a great location, felt safe, and there was plenty of room. We had some issues on our first day, but they were addressed quickly. Central West End is a historic neighborhood with gorgeous architecture and so much charm. May walkable shops nearby including Pass the Past Coffee which had wonderful coffee and amazing scratch-made baked desserts and opens at 7am, perfect for a morning walk to beat the heat. Jeni's Ice Cream (delicious and unique) and Left Bank Books (huge selection and cool atmosphere) were also family favorites.Tips for future renters: Bring a fan. This is a multi-level town home with an open foyer and lots of windows. It was 95-100 degrees outside and the house took a very long time to cool down. Thank goodness we usually travel with a small fan — it really helped the comfort level on the top floor. If you have a large family, bring extra towels. There are five people in our crew (including 3 girls with long hair) and only 4 bath/shower towels. We needed to do multiple loads of laundry to keep up. Aside from the minor issues mentioned above (which were promptly and politely addressed), we enjoyed our stay and can recommend JZ Vacation Rentals with confidence.
