I felt great about this booking as soon as I made it since Maricela responded so quickly, communicated so well, and was so nice. I was greeted at the door and given the tour of her place (which she keeps immaculate) and has made so comfortable that I was very happy that I didn't book a hotel. My itinerary for the week included a 10 minute daily commute to Farr West Corrosion for a NACE certification course. They had a continental breakfast at the course with coffee etc but I couldn't resist firing up the Keurig at Maricela's and having a cup or two in her garden next to her lemon and orange trees as the sun warmed up and the birds sang. After class every day I took random paths back to Maricela's and found everything from Peruvian ceviche to Indian spiced chicken lolly pops (and had to stop at the In-n-Out Burger since we don't have those on the east coast). Maricela was happy to let me chill and was also happy to chat over a beer in the evening. Maricela epitomizes all the qualities a great Air B & B host should have and I'll look to her first when I travel in this area again!
