There is a sofa and a 46 inch HD flat screen TV (with Roku including Netflix and Hulu), and DVD player in the front room. In the back there is a very comfortable queen bed with a Sealy Posturepedic Hybrid Plush mattress and 100% Egyptian cotton sheets and quilt. There is also a single size mattress in the small loft area with a reading light perfect for an older child or small adult.

About the host
Hosted by Dawn Hammond
I am a mother of two amazing kids, I am an RN and work from home. I have lived in the city of Decatur for 15 years and I absolutely love it. I am so excited about hosting and sharing this great city with others. I enjoy gardening, reading, yoga, traveling, camping and love being a Mom. When I was younger I was a nurse in the military and had the opportunity to live in Italy. While there I traveled all over Europe and stayed in many B and B's. Those memories are some that I will treasure forever. I hope I can be as good of a host as I have had the pleasure of experiencing. I look forward to meeting you.
