This is by far the best Airbnb experience I have had. In fact, this has been one of the best customer service and happy encounters ever. Marie is an outstanding host, and I would recommend renting any property she owns.
My husband and I were in the Dallas area adopting our daughter. It was a complicated situation, and because of state regulations we needed to stay in Texas until paperwork cleared for us to be able to take her home to California. We reserved this 1 bedroom apartment through Airbnb, but then realized we needed to alter our arrival date. Marie was super quick with a friendly response to accommodate our date change.
Prior to arriving, I also let Marie know that my mother wanted to fly in from North Carolina to meet her granddaughter and was going to stay with us a for a few nights. Marie actually switched us to her larger 2 bedroom house which she also rents on Airbnb so we would have more room for all of us. Marie called to let me know this was an option and we met her at the property. She herself helped get the place cleaned for us and was a wonderful and gracious host.
We also needed to extend our reservation again while staying due to waiting on papers, and Marie was accommodating and helpful in allowing us to do so. She is an awesome woman, a lot of fun to talk with and we feel genuinely lucky to have met her.
We will most definitely stay in one of her properties again and hope to be able to stay connected. She is a gracious, generous host and one who helps to build and strengthen the Airbnb community.
The 2 bedroom house which we stayed in is absolutely charming and fully stocked with everything you might need. It's in a fantastic area of Dallas with many things to be able to walk to. The house includes wonderful linens, plenty of extra towels, and a fully stocked kitchen.
