We did not meet Ann in person, but she left excellent, clear instructions (with photos!) about how to use everything in the place. We were easily able to reach her back-up host by phone with questions about parking. The house was very comfortable and well decorated. It felt as though every item in the place and been carefully and deliberately chosen by someone who knew what they were up to. We appreciated the location and recommendations for food and music, only wishing that we had had more time to explore them all. We enjoyed Ann's place immensely and would be happy to stay there again.
