Melanie is great with communication with her guests and will work with you to ensure you have a great experience - we needed a late check-in and she was very accommodating. Her place is decorated in an eclectic manner which creates a fun and warm environment. The bed was soft and comfortable, and the rain water type shower was a nice touch. If you have a dog, she cares just as much about the experience being great for your dog, as she she does for you - water bowls, couch covers, a dog bed if you need it, an extra leash, a flash light, etc. Our dog loved her yard. He is a bit of a wuss and was scared by the dehumidifier in the hallway and wouldn’t go in half the unit because of it. That’s my fault for missing that this unit is cooled by a portable AC unit and ceiling fans vs central cooling though - as this is marked in the features. Over all, we enjoyed our stay and are grateful to Melanie for being such a great host!
