What a lovely experience! The house is beautiful and Roland has added perfect guest touches - such as a separate, clearly marked refrigerator space for each guest room, soft linens and towels, a tray awaiting me with snacks and filtered water, a wonderful kitchen that serves as the heart of the home, with coffee, tea, and a comfy window seat where two people can sit and converse.

That leads me to the best part about the house - the owner. Roland is a fascinating man. He has had exciting, interesting experiences. He is well-traveled and knowledgeable about current events and the world, in general. He is very bright, generous and kind. We talked for so long and comfortably the morning I was to leave that I completely forgot that he is running a business and needed to get into my room and prepare it for the next guest. I felt that I was in a good friend's home. I think we could have talked for days.

I did recommend that he put a comfortable chair and reading light in the Blue Suite for guests like me who enjoy reading quietly in the evenings. He readily agreed.

The other three guests staying there were also interesting, return visitors. I chatted with and enjoyed all of them.

I highly recommend his home (and hope it doesn't become so popular that there won't be space for me when I wish to return).
