I celebrated my 40th bday with a group of friends in the metal house and we had a fabulous time. The layout of the house worked really well - there was enough communal space for us to eat together, watch movies together, etc, but we could also retreat to our own rooms when we needed a bit of quiet time. We especially loved spending time on the comfortable bean bags on the front deck when the sun was out. Mario was a very friendly and responsive host. Thanks for a relaxing weekend!
