Cathy was an excellent host, responsive. Whenever there was an issue she was on it immediately.
The room was comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and the soap she provided smelled really nice. I appreciated the portable heater. The bed was very comfortable and had a nice level of warm linens.
It was wonderful having a washer & dryer. The kitchenette was a little awkward to use. There was no drying rack for the dishes which made it weird to figure out where to put them. I really appreciated that although the kitchenette/laundry was shared, I had my own full-sized refrigerator.
The area is a little sketch and I wish there’d been more locked gates, but there were a lot of motion sensor lights.
I wish it had been warmer because the yard seemed like a wonderful place to hang out. There was a pomegranate tree which I wasn’t sure if guests were welcome to partake. But there was also a passionfruit tree, with some of the fruits gathered on the table in such a way that it was clear that we were welcome to take some.
There’s an excellent independent community market a few blocks away, if you prefer to shop locally. And they have organic and gluten free options (and they deliver). If you’re all about big brands, a giant supermarket is just a little bit of a walk away.
There was a little problem with water leaking when it rained and Cathy was great about getting on it, and not making me jump through hoops to leave (water and electricity don’t mix).
I think it’s an excellent value for one traveler & would recommend. Cathy is a very responsive & communicative host, which counts for a lot in my book.
