Anne Marie is warm, attentive & available as a host. She left some local magazines & general info about getting around town, which was helpful. We arrived late and the instructions for check-in were easy to understand. The space is clean & well kept. It is small but adequate for 2 people.
We were in town for a wedding, during Winter, & stayed over for New Year's festivities. Here are a few things to note: you can hear the occupants upstairs. You can tell they are trying to be quiet, so it's not hugely intrusive, but you are aware that you don't have a ton of privacy. The heating unit is slow to heat, and per the instructions, you are requested to turn the heat off when you leave the space. It was cold when we were there so we never really felt warm except in the morning after the heat was on all night. The tub is awesome for a bath, not great for a shower. The shower curtains are very light and stick to you while you are showering, not a lot of room to move or turn around. The path to the space can be tricky. There is a path made of paving stones thru the upper yard & on the stairs down to the lower level. If you have to navigate this in heels, at night, as I did you may feel a bit unsteady trying to ensure your feet actually land firmly on a stable stone. Once you reach the lower level to the space the walk way is solid, but narrow. There s a ping pong table that takes up most of the area so, again, if you're dressed nicely you must be careful not to rub or snag your clothes on the table. When you are dressed casual and wearing flat shoes none of this is really an issue at all. I'm sure the ping pong table is great fun when it's warmer & dryer. And finally, it feels like there are a lot of rules. It feels that way, but in reality, I think the host just made a point to write out some common sense reminders (I acknowledge common sense is variable). Overall, we had an enjoyable time, have no regrets, but will choose somewhere else to stay next time.
