I felt very welcomed by my host. She was very personable and caring. My room, (the Pink Room), was very clean and beautifully appointed. There was a cute chalkboard on the dining room table next to a vase with fresh cut flowers with my name and the names of the other guests on it. On more than one occasion we sat and chatted together or with other guests. she has a lot of information about local restaurants and sites. French pressed, local coffee was available every morning. Her home is also very "green".
