Ruth accepted with a short notice and was very accomodating. We had a problem with airbnb--due to us switching from home computer to mobile devices and some security glitch--and they fixed this and apologized. The room was as advertised, and Ruth was very hepful in making us feel at home and comfortable. She was very friendly, not invasive, and gave us the use of the kitchen and living room, even building a fire for us on several nights that were a bit chilly. She had a number of breakfast items available, both hot and cold, eggs and vegetables from her own garden. There was great wi fi and her place was a short walk to the quay, and, for us a short drive into town. She even got some DVD's for us to watch and offered to do some laundry for us. This a great place to see Westport and the surrounding region.
