Lynda’s place was a magical little respite from the hustle and bustle that trips can be. It was a much needed chance to kick back, relax, read, and rest with no screens or chance for me to drop into work mode while on vacation/holiday. Frankly I love that there isn’t wifi, I love that I got to very easily start a fire in the wood stove (they leave the easy to light logs), and I love that there was a stocked fridge for my breakfast but I could walk a few minutes to excellent food (menus for the closest spots were in the hallway). I love that the apartment had all of the beautiful, unmatchable character of an old building with wide, weathered floor boards, hand hewn doors with old brass knobs, and the most impressive wall of books I’ve seen in an Airbnb. I couldn’t imagine a better place to rest while under the weather, and Lynda is the kindest host who kept checking in to see how I was doing. I will be back!
