I'm sad to report that the listing description was not accurate for us. Though Sue welcomed us when we arrived, and was mostly pleasant during our stay, she acted very disapproving and annoyed each time we used the kitchen. This was very disappointing for us, since a main reason why we chose to stay there was because the post says you're welcome to use the kitchen (as long as you clean up after yourself, respect the space, etc, which we did.) Sue explained where we could keep our food during our 3 night stay (one shelf in the fridge, and one shelf in the pantry) but when we actually put food there she commented on how we had too much food for a short stay (even though we didn't take up any more space than she told us we could.) When my husband made a reasonable meal of rice and lentils/vegetables on our first night she grumbled about how he was making such a "big" meal (?) and that she doesn't expect "short term guests" to make such "big meals". Then the next night she asked that we not cook a "big" meal because she had friends coming over. "Ok, that's no problem," we said. After her guests left that night my husband went downstairs to make himself a turkey sandwich and as he was getting the ingredients from the fridge she said in an annoyed tone "Good Grief!" So I believe we were mislead, and I'm upset about that. Sue's post says that she'd like her guests to feel at home and use the kitchen. We were absolutely not welcomed in the kitchen. If she only welcomes longer term guests into her kitchen, or she has expectations about the number of ingredients her guests should use in their meal preparation, I think she should say so explicitly in her posting. We literally made rice and lentils with veggies. We weren't making 3 course meals or anything. My other main concern with the space was the smell. The stairway leading up to the bedroom had a VERY strong smell of cat urine. The room itself also smelled very strongly of cat urine mixed with cat litter.
