Ayesha was very friendly upon arrival as well as her loving dog Lucy. Ayesha was very accommodating for any assistance we needed and quick w text responses. Her cozy upstairs room was perfect for my brother and a buddy. We came to the North Shore for the surf/surf photography and many other things to enjoy and her room was just perfect. It rained heavy while our stay and the stairs were completely safe! I was concerned about it being slippery when the rain first begin to fall but we were safe. I really enjoyed the window set up where you could hear everything! Made it sound naturally peaceful! You can simply close them if it gets too loud as outside. There's another dog near by that barks occasional but it didn't effect us. I would highly recommend this room for a stay as its right around the corner from the greatest waves on the planet! Ohh and Teds Bakery too!! Love that place!!! Thanks Ayesha!
