Erin is a very lovely person! Although we stayed there less than a week, he always wanted to make our stay as comfortable as possible.
He was always very patient and understanding and gave us different types of work, so it couldn't get boring and we were kept busy.
Erin has a very positive attitude which he tried to transfer to us.
