the owners allowed me to view available rooms first,. the twin room had a great layout, with my daughter having a small private space and tv. i liked that i still had my own double bed and tv in the same room (it was still a family space though!).
i noticed a very slight delay in response to a minor email inquiry, but the owners sorted it immediately.
