The house/cottage was very clean, and the bed and sofa were very comfortable. A few items would have been helpful: toaster or toaster oven, hairdryer, and extra pillowcases for extra pillows. We purchased a reading lamp for the nightstand:) We also have a vacation property, and things like a coffee table and some artwork would be nice touches. The host was very responsive, and offered to bring over their hairdryer, which was kind. The location was convenient to family, friends and local favorites.
