Caro was very kind and helpful during my stay. She got me some milk from her house for my morning coffee and welcomed me upon arrival. The place had a nice bed and was quite warm with the space heater, but did lack the ambiance I expected from the photos.
My biggest disappointment was access to CBD and restaurants that are not fast-food places. I did not have a car and was planning either to walk (1.4 miles away) or use the bus. The bus stops at 6:00pm and walking at night didn't seem like a good idea at night. I ended up using taxis 4 times and it cost me much more than it would have to stay in CBD to begin with. It was more my fault than the host's. Lesson learned ... but I did get a lot of exercise!
