Our host was watering the plants outside when we arrived. She did not go inside with us to give a tour or show us around, she just asked if we had any questions and left quickly, which I thought was odd. She wasn't rude, but it was not the warm welcome we expected. It was really nice to have croissants, coffee and OJ waiting for us. The house was really cute with lots of art and books, but a bit small for the 6 of us--it would be more ideal for a couple with young kids. Many of the windows did not have screens and the carpet leading downstairs was filthy. We were disappointed that the TV downstairs was the only one in the house--so we could not watch movies unless we all crammed in together on 2 twin beds. The neighborhood is a bit sketchy--we did not feel very safe and our big front windows did not have curtains and one of the windows looked like it had a bullet hole in it. The location is great--only minutes from the airport and close to restaurants and shopping.
