Isabel was a truly great host and her place was an incredible find. It is nestled in a beautiful private garden/yard area behind a locked gate which was easy to get through, even at night. There was some slight confusion about how to handle the key I used to get in but she sorted that out quickly and efficiently even though I had to come in late which is all the more impressive.
She was extremely accommodating even as my travel plans changed and responded to communications promptly whenever I needed to ask her something. She had great recommendations and we even found time for some tea and quality conversation before I had to leave which is what makes staying in homes such as hers worth it over a hotel. There were big, beautiful plants and artwork everywhere that made the experience cozy and unique.
I am grateful for the direct attention, beautiful home, comfortable bed, and personal connection I was able to get while staying with Isabel and I would certainly stay there again.
