I really enjoyed my week stay. It was really pleasant to have the provided amenities and the host was very thoughtful of leaving snacks and other items like tea, coffee, creamer, extra hygiene products, and more! It was really clean and the bed is wonderful! Definitely recommend it!Thank you Kayla :)
