Melanie changed her schedule to accommodate our arrival time, which was most considerate. We arrived to the wonderful smell of homemade granola that she had prepared for us, and she gave us a friendly welcome. Her place is absolutely beautiful, clean and well maintained. Her sense of style is faultless--she has a designer's touch.
The neighborhood seems safe and it was easy to get around. Melanie was great at giving advice and directions. She even let us store our luggage in her garage after we
had checked out. We were going to spend some time downtown and she was worried about having luggage visible in the car as we had a hatchback with limited trunk space.
