I constantly travel for work, so I appreciate a detailed review when staying in Airbnb’s. In kind, I will try to give a useful review for anyone interesting in staying here.
-Type of stay: Solo work trip, 4 nights.
-Check-in process: Super easy and contactless. The host messaged me the code to open the door and told me where to park. Space for one car.
-The Space: The cottage was very clean and just as lovely as in the pictures. It’s a 1 room unit with high ceilings. It was the perfect amount of space for me as a solo traveler. The mattress was very comfortable with plenty of pillows. The kitchen was well stocked with basic dishes and appliances. There was a lovely little pathway lined with greenery that directed the way to the cottage from the back fence. The garden was very nice, although unfortunately I didn't have time to enjoy it.
-Location/Neighborhood: The neighborhood was great. Lots of people walking their dogs, and very quiet. Coming from a solo female traveler, I did not feel unsafe at all.
-Check-out: Very easy. The host didn’t request anything from me but I emptied all of my trash bins before I left, just out of habit.
-The host: Very responsive and friendly.
-Note to travelers: I had to cross a drawbridge to get to and from my work site further in mainland. I was caught by a passing boat 2 times. I waited for no longer than 4 minutes each time. Just something to keep in mind in case you'll have a tight schedule and need to travel inland.
-Overall Rating: I loved this property! I’ve stayed at Airbnb’s that aren’t always as good as their listing makes them seem. This is not one of those. It was super comfortable, lots of privacy, and perfect for my trip. If I’m in the area and it’s available, I’d 100% stay here again. 5 out of 5 stars, I would absolutely recommend this space to others.
