Mary's place was incredibly relaxing, super clean and comfortable. I stayed in the single room which was perfect for a solo traveler. The air circulation was strong, the closet space was plentiful and the bathroom shower was very roomy with strong water pressure. Her friendly dog Polly greeted me at the door and enjoy belly rubs if you have the time. The patio seating area is lovely, the neighborhood is safe, quiet and super convenient to food and shopping. I loved going to pho ca dao for quick and tasty Vietnamese and 85 degrees for bakery snacks. I would not hesitate to stay with Mary again. Everything was easy from beginning to end and I can see why Mary has the super host recognition among her guests.
