Laurie was an excellent host. She was easy to communicate with and meet up with. Information on local groceries and eateries were very useful. Laurie's directions to find the apartment are accurate but my husband and I did have some difficulty with the many small streets in her areas when going in other directions---we were grateful to have google maps on my cell phone. Laurie was great about making sure we had a good space to park in. The apartment description and photos were very accurate. The kitchen was easy to use and she left ample breakfast material. The wine was a delightful bonus---many thanks for all Laurie!
