My husband and I had never used AirBnB before, so we didn't know what to expect, but Julia was the perfect mix of available, friendly, informative, and independent. She showed us our adorable and comfortable apartment--which was small, but VERY space-efficient--showed us around the yard (which included an introduction to her charming dog and adorable baby goats), gave us some tips about places to visit in the area, and then let us have a great time on our own. She also provided us with a helpful sheet of information regarding the TV and internet, nearby accommodations, and general rules to follow. We felt welcome, and we very much enjoyed our dynamic with her. Julia's Contemporary Studio set the bar for our AirBnb expectations quite high; I hope other hosts can live up to them. :)
