Although grateful to the host to have received the full refund for canceling upon arrival, I nevertheless have to mention the reason we left immediately, so that future guests, who rely on reviews, like I did and do, know what to expect. My daughter is allergic to tobacco smell and smoke, and the house had a very very strong cigarette smoke smell upon entering, which was unacceptable for us. Not the kind of smell that would eventually go away if you aired out the house, but the type where it seemed to have permeated everything in the home, and had heavy smokers living there for years. Communication with the host was good and he was very responsive and processed the refund the next day. I am sure it will be the right house for others, but it just wasn't for us.
