Deborah was a great host, very friendly and she even put our dirty clothes in her wash (even though we arrived somewhat late). I gave 5 stars because it is a great value for what we paid. There is a nice amount of space and the kitchen is really well equipped. It is located in a nice quiet neighborhood. The bedding and pillows could use updating, the couch was pretty uncomfortable, and the shower was difficult to use with the water alternating between ice cold and scalding hot. So it was quirky, but again, for the price it was a good value!
