Of all the categories on which Airbnb suggests users might want to compliment hosts — “stylish space, sparkling cleanliness, amazing amenities, outstanding hospitality, quick response” etc. — the one that took my eye (even though Tonia scored on all those others too) was “thoughtful touches”; those would include things like having a modest amount of butter out on the kitchen counter in a covered dish at room temperature, conveniently spreadable if one wanted to pop some of the supplied bread into the supplied toaster; like the fresh flowers on the breakfast counter; like the selection of excellent magazines here and there that were pristine current issues, not slightly tattered back numbers. We also appreciated the total absence of street noise; Tonia’s on a short quiet one-way street. We were delighted both with her and her beautiful hideaway.
