Alexandra was helpful and made us feel really comfortable. She offered us each a towel and washcloth, use of common areas, the deck, kitchen and TV. The bedroom was a little hot at night with no air conditioning, but otherwise the room worked well for us. She was very honest about her home, it IS an older farm house - but has lots of charm. Her dog seems nice and laid back, but can be a little uneasy at first around new guests. Alexandra had great recommendations for places to eat, drink and hike as well. It was a little hard to get in touch before our arrival and departure, but overall we liked our first experience using airbnb.
