We came to Dallas for a week for our wedding. Family lived within 5 minutes of the house.
Originally, we meant to stay in a hotel, but the one closest to them was booked for a volleyball conference. I looked on airbnb and quickly realized that a large home with a layout that allowed for entertaining offered many more benefits than a hotel. The bridal party stayed with us. So fun! We hosted family for dinner. lunch, and brunch - and we were SO comfortable in this home - which is built for entertaining, with an open room concept of spacious and connected kitchen/dining room/living room/fireplace/and auxiliary room with pool table.
Of course, I ran the whole scenario by Yossi prior to booking. His listing was very clear that large parties, loud music, etc... are verboten. But as 50-somethings embarking on our 2nd marriages with older family, It was a civilized affair with no rowdiness whatsoever and we were a small group. Tip: there is only a Keurig coffee maker. So, bring pods!
