Given the fact that Marie has over 200 reviews – all of which are 5-stars – she nonetheless greatly surpassed my expectations. My fiancé and I were greeted with a warm smile and a positive, enthusiastic demeanor, which made us instantly feel welcomed. She even had fresh fruit and a moist, sweet, cake-like bread waiting for us inside the cottage. Although I could endlessly write about my positive experience, I will just end my review with this: As a first-time Airbnb user, I hit the jackpot (hospitality, cleanliness, appeal, etc.). Marie is a top-notch host, and all other hosts out there have HUGE shoes to fill!
