My husband and I stayed with Mary for a month. Mary was very helpful and friendly throughout our stay. It was nice that we had a bathroom to ourselves, although in my opinion that is where the pros end. She did advertise that she has dogs, but they are very unfriendly, they bit my husband several times, and they bark every time you come and go. In addition to that, the whole house smells faintly like dog pee. My final complaint is that the bedroom door only locks from the inside. Every other room I've rented on airbnb has had a lock and key on the exterior so you can lock your personal items in the room when you are out. Overall, Mary was a very thoughtful host, but I would not choose to stay here again.
