I was in Mariela's place for a month and felt very much at home. There's good lighting and a very at home feel. I didn't use the front dining room but all the other rooms were comfortable. A guest visited from my hometown for 5 days and was able to sleep comfortably on the sofa which converts to a futon bed. Probably my favorite room is the bathroom, as it is uniquely modern and has great lighting and a skylight. Bed was not spectacular but plenty comfortable for a month stay. Communication with Mariela was excellent, although not much was needed. Thank you Mariela!
