Ethlie was very welcoming throughout my entire stay. The space was comfortable, and I was able to do get a lot of work done on the desk downstairs, and it was nice with the light coming through the windows during the day. The space was very clean and came with some amenities, and I had a couple requests of which she was accommodating. She even gave me a copy of her book to borrow during my stay.

However, I was disappointed to find out that the backyard space was shared, and it didn't have a table. It is also not very private sound wise. I could hear everything, vise versa. I was not greeted well by her dog at first, and didn't feel very comfortable walking around outside of the house or using the outdoor space because of that. There is also kind of a weird smell in the house that bothered me a bit. The first night I was woken up early, but the two days after that I slept incredibly well in there... something about the bed or the lighting when the blinds are closed. I felt very rested.

All in all it wasn't totally ideal for myself, but I had a nice time and got a lot done. I would stay again.
