I was so excited when I arrived at Lori's place. It was so inviting! The communication before my arrival was welcoming and friendly. Lori and her place exceeded my expectations. The space is very warm and clean. It was like being at home. I travel alone for work a lot and have learned hotels are not for me anymore. For me the best part of my stay with Lori was that I felt completely safe and secure. As a solo female traveler on business I am very sensitive to that. The area around the house is very quiet and family friendly. So many lovely craftsman style homes in the neighborhood. I was within walking distance to many restaurants, coffee shops, florists and grocery shops. The target grocery is only blocks away and amazing. However, it is not on a busy street. I live in a small mountain town and I get overwhelmed easily. Lori's space and area around her house made me feel very comfortable and happy. Her place is also so well stocked! I can't wait to stay here again for work.
