We stayed at Rachel's place for 3days and everything went better than expected : When we arrived Rachel took the time to show us around, she told us about the good places to visit and how to get there, we were able to ask her as many questions as we needed to and she let us some privacy in the evening by staying in her room :)
When we would come back from our activities in the evening the living room lights were on as well as the AC, even better than an hotel room.
PS: When you catch the eye of Lulu(the cat) you can be sure that she will always be ready for cuddles :)
