I had a mixed experience during my stay at Linda's. As I began planning for my stay, I was grateful for Linda's communication and accommodations as my dates had to change a few times as the stay approached. Upon arrival, I was expecting to be able to make use of the home outside of my room as the listing mentioned kitchen access and other accommodations, but Linda's place is quite crowded with items and I did not feel comfortable in any places other than in the room. That said, the room was quite comfortable, and I could tell the thoughtfulness that Linda had put into the details of the room (water boiler, dishes/silverware, other items in room). While I appreciated her attention to detail, there were quite a few "rules" in the house that I was reminded of multiple times (toilet seat cover has to always be down, shower facets have to be left a certain way, cannot drag dirt or leaves into house, had to wipe up all excess water in bathroom, etc). These rules and reminders made it difficult for me to feel at ease, as I was always feeling like there was something I had not done and would be reminded of. In addition, there were a some smells I experienced in the main part of the house that added to my discomfort. Overall, I ended up cutting my stay short, and Linda was very kind and understanding as we worked out the best solution for both of us to remedy the situation.
