This year we opted for a week long rental instead of 4 rooms at the hotel. While the savings were minimal (actually break even with the rental van), I can say that having your own "space", and the luxury of a break from the venue, made it worth it. But what it even more worth it, was the house and host we selected. Sometimes going in blind (especially for a week) you just never know. Vi was a great host. When communications were necessary prior to the trip, the answers were speedy and on point. The accomodation to requests were positive. Everything went so smoothly that there was no need for further communication during the entire stay, which allowed the crew to focus on the job at hand. Thank you Vi for being a great host, providing a great space, and staying attentive to our needs. Highly recommended comfortable space. Our group of 7 people were thrilled.
