This was my family's first time at an airbnb so I can only compare to an average motel/hotel that would cost about the same. The best thing about staying here for us was having a kitchen. This enabled us to save some money on food during our vacation. I think Dan's place is pretty unique as I'm sure not many airbnbs (or hotels) have chickens or giant tortoises right outside their door. It took me a while to get used to going through a side gate at a private residence, especially when we came home late at night because I feared we would wake up the children that live there. The guest house is only a few steps from the main house. Also, it's worth noting that it's a tight fit if you have more than 2 people staying and need an air mattress. You will have to step over the air mattress to access the closet. I do feel that any minor inconveniences were outweighed by the many conveniences of staying here. We always had parking, we had plenty of towels and toiletries, and we even were able to have a delicious grape fruit from the tree outside our window. Our host was courteous and accommodating and we found our stay to be pleasant.
