I stayed at Tendais for 2 and a half months over the summer. The house was very nice. I liked that the guest area is completely separate from the hosts house. Having a washer and dryer available to use was a big plus. Also having a separate area for each guest to keep their food was a welcome surprise. The entire guest area was always clean and well kept. You could get as much or as little interaction with the host and her family as you wanted.

The only thing about this experience that was negative was the parking situation. The town does not allow overnight parking so I got a few tickets. There are a few streets about a block or so away where you can park overnight however they tend to get crowded. Also while I was parked there my car was stolen.
