Staying in the Red Room was a wonderful experience. Joanne made it clear I was welcome to come by as soon as I was in town and get settled; she gave me instructions as to how to get in if she wasn't home at the time. I introduced myself to her immediately and she made me feel very welcome. The room was clean, and I particularly enjoyed the noise machine. In the kitchen there was plenty out for tea and coffee out and I was welcome to utilize the fridge. In the bathrooms there was a section of items (soaps, shampoos, disposable razors) for anyone who may have forgotten theirs. Overall a very welcoming experience.
