Midori is both friendly and helpful and she respects your privacy/space. I was so pleased with the cleanliness of her home (both in private/common areas) and with the basic amenities offered. Midori's pets (cats/dog) are friendly/inquisitive, but Midori also acknowledges the comfort level of her guests regarding her four-legged family members. My comfort level would be considered 'extremely high' and so I was quite happy to spend time with all present and all are well-trained. A convenient, easy and pleasant stay!
