Samantha was a great host! She was quick and thorough in her responses to me - and she even provided an opportunity for us to dicuss our past host/guest experiences through the text platform. As for the studio, it is clean, spacious, modern, and provides all of the amenities that she listed. My only concerns were the inability to alter the natural light with one window in the apartment, as the wand was missing. Also, that particular window as difficult to open and close; but, it was not impossible. (I chose to visit Dallas in October so I could enjoy natural light while enjoying the fresh breeze - sans the humidity. So, this was important to me when I booked her place.) However, if these are not concerns for you, then you will still have a good experience! I definitely recommend this place.
