Marlene was not home when we arrived, however, we had been in communication with Marlene before we arrived at her home. Our bedroom was nice and it was exactly as pictured on Airbnb website. The morning we were leaving Marlene made us some coffee and offered us some fruit and was even willing to make some breakfast. As we drank our coffee we the opportunity to actually get to know Marlene. The home and neighborhood were very quiet. We would definitely be willing to stay with Marlene again in the future.
