Valerie was a great hostess! Communication was quick and we never felt like a “bother” to her. She took her time at check-in to show us around and was always available through messaging if we had questions.
Her home is beautifully decorated with artwork in every room. We felt very much at home and comfortable in her place. The stairs are a bit creaky but it didn’t bother us; they’re safe to walk on. Bathroom amenities were provided and there were thoughtful touches included, like a jewelry holder in the master bedroom, water bottles in the fridge and extra blankets available. The space was perfect for our family of 4 to enjoy for a couple days. It was convenient to have free wifi and tv programs available. Her home is VERY clean. I never had a concern about cleanliness; she does a very thorough job between guests.
The neighborhood felt safe. We visited during the winter so we didn’t venture out much but I’m sure it’s a beautiful area to explore when it’s warmer. Also, there’s neighbors to either side of us and we never heard them (even though I’m sure they heard us with our 2 little boys).
This was our first Airbnb experience and it was amazing! I highly recommend her home!
