I'm a professional chef and have lived in Paris & Brazil. I prepare a full meal every night, and have hosted travelers and ESL students since 2011. As I’m welcoming strangers into my home, I only consider requests from guests who introduce themselves properly and have a profile picture. To reserve the room, I require a 50% deposit, with the balance paid the day before arrival. Guests pay any transfer fees. I try to keep my room booked, so I don't accept reservations more than a week or 2 in advance, and only open my calendar for 5 weeks. So the room may be available for longer than my calendar indicates--please ask! My price does include self-serve breakfast and a full-course dinner every night, and I also offer an optional Bento lunch for an additional charge. -Dinner is served when ready, between 7 & 8 pm. If you won’t be home for dinner, please tell me the night before. This site's pricing is confusing, because although my price includes breakfast and dinner, the description defaults to "Please note that only a light breakfast is included in the room rate. All other meals will incur an additional cost." but it also says "INCLUDED IN THE STAY Full Breakfast Half Board" Bottom line: dinner is included! Lunch available at extra cost.

House rulesI do NOT accept smokers or users of fragrances, even aerosol spray, as I am allergic.
- I do NOT accept smokers or users of fragrances, even aerosol spray, as I am allergic.
- Please plan to arrive on Sunday and leave Saturday for a 28-night minimum stay. Of course longer stays are available. Note that this site may default to 30 nights, but 28 is correct. Message me with any questions.
- Overnight guests are not allowed.
- I provide self-serve breakfast and full dinner, which are included in the price, and offer a bento box lunch option at additional cost.
- Please note:
- I book by the week, not the calendar month. A week starts Sunday and ends Saturday. I do this because different months have different numbers of days (31, 30 and 28 or 29 in leap year) and I feel it is fair to charge for the nights stayed.
- If the room isn't reserved, I may be able to be more flexible with the check-in and check-out time—just ask.
- Guests are asked to respect the cleanliness and order of my home by removing shoes (bring slippers!) and keeping noise from computer, music and phone low enough that others outside the room cannot hear. Quiet hours are between 10 pm & 8 am.
- Breakfast is self-serve: coffee/tea/milk, bread/pastry, fruit. Guests clean up after breakfast: put dishes in dishwasher and wipe counter & table. Please do not leave dishes in sink or crumbs on table/counter, or bring food into you room.
- As dinners are included and significant effort goes into their preparation, guests help by setting the table, washing dishes, and taking out recycling & sweeping floor.
- For vegetarians and vegans:
- I do cook meat for myself. There will also be vegetables, grain and salad—but not necessarily a vegetarian entree every night. Guests are expected to wash all dinner dishes, even ones that had meat on them. If that doesn’t work for you, please don’t book. Thank you.
