This a great value. Both the room and Barbara's house are very clean and well maintained. I stayed three days in the private room and, due to my work schedule, only had the chance to meet Barbara very briefly, but she still checked with me several times to make sure I had everything I needed. I didn't get the chance to explore the neighborhood at all, but it is not far from the downtown area (about a fifteen minute drive). Everything was exactly as advertised. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an affordable place to stay. Thanks Barbara!
