Laura is a great host! She is very warm and welcoming and ensures you feel comfortable. The room is pretty much as listed. No AC so it can get a bit warm even with the windows and blinds open. The wifi is spotty so if you need to do work have a backup hotspot! Newport street closer to the beach has a bunch of stores, cafes, restaurants and bars which is less than a 10 minute walk. You are a close drive to all the popular area’s 15-20 min drives. Only major downfall of our trip is we didn’t realize the fridge was off one night, we put our leftovers in the fridge which welcomes many black ants that kinda stuck around for the rest of our stay. Definitely make sure the fridge is on before you use it!!
