Kari was very sweet and communicative. The studio was clean, quite and cool. Having access to a full kitchen was really helpful... as well as nice bedding and bathroom linens. We didn't really use any of the outside area, but having a nice little backyard and private entrance makes the experience a lot better. The bathroom water tank was pretty loud, as she explains on the page, but it wasn't a huge issue. We saw Kari (and met her cute dog), only briefly in the evenings - it was nice to know someone was nearby in case we needed anything.
