Yumi and Bill are amazing hosts who are just so warm, welcoming, communicative, and engaging. Their home is so beautiful - the pictures don't do it justice! The bedroom is beautifully decorated, with plenty of space for two, and the private bathroom is extremely clean (with good water pressure). Additionally, they provide delicious fruits and coffee in the morning, and their living room and kitchen are both serene places to sit and chat.

Several things stood out about our trip compared to others. First, Yumi is extremely responsive - I found myself giving her inconsistent ETAs and updating her several times prior to arrival (due to travel by car at the start of a long weekend), to which she responded with flexibility, patience, and understanding. She even made sure to meet us outside so we knew where to park (on their driveway). Second, Yumi and Bill are extremely accommodating. Upon our arrival, Yumi asked when we were planning to wake up the following morning so she would have fruits and coffee prepared. When I realized last minute that I needed an iron, they rushed home to get it out for me. But what we found the most pleasurable about our stay was how lovely and charming Yumi and Bill are as a couple. We found ourselves engrossed in conversation with them both, which is rarely the case when visiting a stranger's home for such a short time. Upon discovering that Yumi has published a cookbook (Yumi's Yummies), we bought two copies that she happily signed! Can't wait to try her recipes! It was not surprising to see that their home is decorated with art and mementos from previous AirBnB guests - guests who seem to have shared such a connection with them that they left a personal piece of themselves. We will definitely be visiting them again the next time we're in the area!
