I think Samantha was really great, although I didn't feel as though the place was clean enough for a guest. The floors were dirty, furniture was dusty, and the bathroom wasn't freshly clean. I didn't feel like a guest, more like a roommate. I'd also like it more if the rooms had locks. The dog is intimidating the first couple days, and I have a dog of my own so I'm not scared of them. It's just her dog barks a lot at you when you walk in. So if you don't like dogs or are iffy about them, you probably shouldn't stay here. The house was well-decorated but I was under the impression that I was the only guest for the two nights I was there. Then randomly saw a man one day in my bathroom. There wasn't much communication between the host and I, and we only met once. I'd rate this experienece a 3 out of 5. Samantha is pleasant, though!
