This review may be a bit long but it's worth it. My boyfriend and I had an Airbnb nightmare when a host canceled our 5 day stay while we were on their doorstep. Luckily we found Melanie's place. However, we then had issues booking it through Airbnb and Melanie was in contact with me messaging back and forth for about a day and a half trying to help me get it sorted out. She even called Airbnb for me twice. I was so thankful to have someone on my side helping me during the stressful experience. Point being - Melanie is a Super Super Host that is responsive and helpful so you can rest assured knowing that she's got your back!
Now on to the review of the place. It was absolutely perfect! It was bright and airy with lots of windows and very beautifully decorated. The kitchen had everything you would need to cook a meal. There was a cute little balcony off the kitchen with a grill you could use. The bed was super comfy and there was another bed in loft available too. There was a private entrance through a back gate that had a beautiful garden with veggies that guests can harvest and cook with. How cool is that?! There were also a couple bikes you could use to cruise around the neighborhood - unfortunately we didn't get to that as it was 99 degrees out! The neighborhood was very nice with cute historic homes and in a very good area just a couple miles from downtown. Lots of restaurants and stores to check out just a couple blocks from the house. Overall it was such a great place to stay and we had a wonderful experience. We will absolutely try to book this place the next time we visit!
