We never got to meet the hosts, but we were in contact with them so it feels like we know them a bit. This property was PERFECT. comfortable bed, very clean, huge size for just the 2 of us, and right in the neighborhood we wanted. They also have their own cute little soaps on the counter in the bathroom in case you need some! Also very very quiet!! We recommended it to people coming to visit in a few months, because we preferred it over a hotel. On a personal note we got engaged on this trip, so I have a feeling we'll be back to visit for all the happy memories :)!!
