Our host Karen was extremeley welcoming, communicative, and responsive. She emailed me several times before arrival, not just with confirmation details, but also with parking and restaurant recommendations. She answered any questions I had almost immediately. And I especially appreciated her flexibility in letting us check in 2 hours before normal, to accommdate our travel schedules. The historic home is in walking distance to all downtown amenities, as well as the shuttle out to the mansions. Lovely!
