Audrey is incredibly nice. Her flat is really cute and welcoming, well decorated and easily accessible by tram. The only remark I’d make is that it’s not huge, so the room is perhaps ok for one person but just too small for two, and to a certain extent privacy is difficult to keep since it’s literally glued to the toilet and bathroom, and quite close to her own room. The apartment is packed with rooms despite its size.
I had some issues with the alarm at first, which Audrey wants to be connected every time anyone leaves and nobody else is staying home. I must say communication was difficult after it unexpectedly started to beep in the middle of our very first night there. Apparently it was my fault, and since it greatly disturbed her she let me know quite frankly how she felt. I would’ve missed a better handling of a situation to which a host so concerned with security is likely to respond to, leaving aside her astonishing certainty that I was to blame for it (we had been sleeping for about an hour when it happened). Another security-related issue happened as she reportedly found the main door totally open (again, I had been sleeping for a while). This time, however, she reacted with more kindness and patience, despite her more than understandable concerns.
Finally, I would’ve also missed her final address to me to be smoother. She reminded me of her check-out schedules (Before 9am), understandably constrained by her workday. Surprisingly enough, however, I left before she did.
All in all, I think she can be a great host. Mine weren’t the easiest circumstances during that stay, and I think being honest with her about how I felt really helped.
