Let me first preface this by saying It can be cliche to tick 5-stars for every category, every time a person creates a review. However, Judy honestly and truly deserves 6-stars.
This is why:
1. She has a disarming smile, authentic, and unpretentious character that exudes motherliness.
2. As an interior designer, she showcases her flair for color, trinkets, coordination, placement, and necessities in a way rarely exhibited in other Airbnb and hotels.
3. She bakes...Bakes...BAKES. Did I mention "bakes"? I'm going to leave it at that. To try and explain how delicious her goodies are would spoil the experience. You'll need to taste them to fully understand baking bliss.
As for her lovely abode:
1. The photos of this quaint, fully-equipped hideaway do not do it justice. Upon arrival, I was amazed at the silence, warmth, and charm of the apartment.
2. Plates, glasses, towels, soap, coffee, blankets...oh-my! No worries about forgetting essentials. Judy has it all covered. Every nook, cranny, and cabinet has a surprising array of essentials. Oh, and the TP, sewing set, dryer, and more are in the white cabinet. You'll find it. I didn't. Because I'm an idiot.
3. The temperature is perfect. I arrived during the winter months and in spite of the outside freeze it was always perfectly toastie inside and my footsies always stayed comfortably padded while traipsing on her warm carpets.
4. The lighting is so well positioned and amply supplied that you don't realize you are in a basement until you go night-night and comfortably get a total blackout with lights-out.
I extended my days on a couple of occasions because it just felt so wonderful surrounded by so much home-comfort while being taken care of by the watchful eye of Judy.
So, yeah! 5-stars is not cliche and Judy deserves "6".
Boom!
