We stayed at Lydia's place for about one month.
It was our first AirBnB experience and so we were a bit worried.
But we were so glad that we chose to stay at her place.
First, the cottage was vey clean and comfy. As described, it came with a cute patio just for us, fully equipped kitchen, and a very comfortable bed. There was also a huge air mattress for us to use, which was also very convenient.
We were also very pleasantly surprised to see how "well stocked" the place was. There were even scissors, echo-bags for grocery shopping, and detergents for laundry-- anything one would think they need at home, we could find them here.
Finally and importantly, we would like to thank Lydia and Mitch for their hospitality and for making our stay such a pleasant experience.
