Ian and Emily are friendly and gracious hosts. I was hesitant to stay in an AirBnB that was within the owners' living space, but they made it comfortable and easy. The very reasonable rules and expectations were clear from the beginning. The decor was interesting and homey. I like animals, so it was fun to have the friendly cat around. The parrots were fun to watch and learn about, and they impact the peace and calm of the sleeping quarters at all.
