I was surprised that after reading other reviews carefully none of what I experienced had been mentioned, so I hope this serves others in the future to have clear expectations.
The owner was friendly and present for my check-in.
The photos online do not correspond to the current state of the home. The house is in need of repair. There is an odor of dog food, the windows in my room were not operable which made ventilation poor, the rug under the bed needs a deep cleaning or maybe just replacement. The mattress was soft so that one can feel the springs.
I only stayed one night out the seven nights I had booked to attend a retreat. My request for a partial refund of less than 50% of my total cost was denied by the owner.
