I'm really impressed by the hostess. Sometimes when you travel you think only about the location and room you stay in. And for certain our room was wonderful. Exceptionally clean - the pillows and bedspread smelt like they were fresh from the laundry which helped me fall asleep easily. It was also beautifully decorated (that's the benefit of staying in an Airbnb whose host is an interior decorator). But what is often forgotten is that in addition to a wonderful room the host can make an impact. Our host was exceptionally communicative. We struggled to get the door open because we were unfamiliar with the type of lock and there our host was to meet us in a matter of minutes to help with a smile on her face and kindness despite us waking her up in the middle of the night. Our host graciously offered us a bottle of wine, orange juice and face mask cream. While we did not have time to enjoy all the gifts the mere act of having receive them made me feel grateful, appreciated and truly welcomed. I never thought that the host of an Airbnb would matter in my stay - but on this trip I was proven wrong. The experience with the host is what made my trip to this apt worthwhile. I believe the host experience was actually even better than the room. That says a lot because the apt was in an excellent area and near great restaurants.
