Kendra was an absolutely great host! She was nothing but kind and accommodating with everything brought up, extremely responsive and easy to work with. We took a gamble seeing there wasn’t many reviews as it was a new listing, but seeing Kendra’s previous positive reviews made it easy to choose. The listing itself was great. The place was easy to find with clear instructions to reach the place. The space was clean and updated with appropriate heating/temp.
