Alicia is a lovely host and her home is very nice. There is no WiFi in the house, which made things difficult for international guests who could not access their email and texts. The lack of internet also meant that there was no access to netflix on computers or the TV. Alicia noted this in her description, but it ended up being more difficult than I anticipated for my traveling companions. The decor is minimal (no bedside tables or lamps - means you have to fumble in the dark to get back to bed after you turn the lights off, which can be difficult in a new place). Overall, it's a nice house in a good location and Alicia was a great host, but it doesn't come with some of the amenities and nicer decor (linens and towels) that you might be used to at this price point.
