Where to begin? I could give a short and to the point review: “Madelyn’s Air BnB have ruined hotel stays for me forever!”
That is the basic truth. My friend and I stayed here over the past Labor Day weekend and our stay was wonderful! The house itself is in a residential area that has a country feel to it. You enter through a breezeway to a backyard oasis. Lots of trees, plants, and a pool off to the side. So beautiful and peaceful. No loud city noises, just fresh air, and the occasional sound of the owner’s chickens. Yes, chickens! Can we say farm fresh eggs? I had fresh eggs every morning at our breakfast table outside the room. My friend and I love the color purple and found out that Madelyn, the host, does as well. Our breakfast table was adorable with purple accents. So nice to sit outside and eat. Even with the heat, we still had a refreshing breeze.
The room itself is just the right size with two beds, closet to store our clothes, a fireplace, and a refrigerator with coffee maker on top. There was complimentary water and other beverages in the fridge as well as a variety of coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. Chocolate candy and snacks were also available. The décor was charming, and the generous bathroom had some extra shampoo and soup in case we had forgotten ours. Our host really thought of everything!
The favorite part of our stay was how welcome Madelyn made us feel. Like we were dear old friends. We chatted every morning and she was genuinely interested in our trip and lives. We both feel like we made a good friend while we stayed there. And her animals were just as welcoming. She had at least two cats and three dogs, Blossom, Willow, and Sam. The dogs were super loving and friendly, especially to my friend Kathleen who was missing her own dog.
Thank you for everything, Madelyn! It is because of hosts like you that people prefer to stay in an Air BnB! We would definitely stay there again and recommend you to everyone!
