I was slightly hesitant to stay in a room in someone else's residence, as I had never done this before through air b and b. I have to say that Regina and her space far surpassed my expectations, making it not only a fine decision, but a trip-defining one. Regina's cute Cambridge house is well decorated from her travels and very clean. It was super easy to come and go, thanks to her detailed directions for arrival, and the set up of the place, and coming back to the house always felt like coming home--peaceful and comfortable. I found my bed very comfortable, and as a student, I appreciated the work desk with lamp. Wifi was easy to access.
Regina herself defines the super host. She made me feel welcome right away. She was generous with advice and little things like some breakfast the day after I arrived. She struck the perfect balance of being friendly but also giving plenty of space. I truly felt like I was staying with family by the end of it and it was sad to say goodbye.
