Smitha, was a very attentive host. She was very accommodating and wanted our stay to be pleasant. She shares the home with her husband, son and 3 dogs. My daughter loved her kindness, feeding the fish and her friendly dogs. The space is part of the main house. It's small but for 1 or 2 people it's cozy. For the first few days we had difficulty breathing and I thought it might be the air quality indoor or possibly outdoor but without mentioning it to Smitha she brought over a air purifier and I didn't have to use my asthma medicine for the rest of our stay. I have very sensitive lungs and I need my dwelling to be free of pet dander, dust and allergen free. She made it perfectly clear the space is dog friendly and I took my chances and it worked out. They have a wonderful patio outside the space but the weather wasn't agreeable for a BBQ. You will hear the dogs, voices and footsteps through the walls but it wasn't loud enough and or frequent enough to disturb us. Thank you.
