Maru is the sweetest host - she has a wonderful warmth about her. Upon meeting her we were incredibly comfortable and well taken care of; she gave us a look around her wonderful castle of a home and gave us a very thorough lowdown of everything we needed to know, plus some awesome recommendations and anecdotes. She was very quick at responding and very flexible about our check-in/check-out needs. I only stayed for a night, but would book again in a heartbeat.
