Mariona's home was the perfect place to start our 6 week trip. We were there for 5 nights, her place is very clean, looks just like the photos presented, is spacious enough that it's comfortable with 4 people moving about, and has everything and more that you may need (she even had 3 kinds of coffee on hand, yay! ).
There were 4 of us; the beds were all very comfortable, centrally located (very walkable/safe), and she offered us great suggestions with maps on hand so we didn't have to go searching for one which can sometimes be a nuisance when initially arriving to a new city.
I could only hope all hosts are as wonderful as she is. Excellent communication & very thorough! Thank you from all four of us!
