great host fresh breakfast clean room cold room breathing trouble bad concussion
Alison is a great host. The barn was lovely. The room was nice, spacious, and clean. Alison cooks a fresh breakfast for a time that suits me.
The room was like sleeping in ice. I am waiting for the medication because I have bronchial pneumonia. I am having trouble breathing. I hit my head badly and have a concussion.

Acceptable stay with a couple of snags
cold room beam placement
The location worked well. It was quiet.
The room felt quite cold. I think I'm getting sick. I bumped my head pretty hard on a beam. Its placement seemed a bit off.
