Allan and Ellen were great hosts. Their basement apartment was perfect for our family with a 3 yr old and a 11 month old. Once the kids went to bed, they had a quiet patio outside where we could relax and wind down. My daugther also loved the fish pond they had outside and every morning she wanted to see the fish. Allan even let her feed the fish one morning! The apartment is in a very safe area and close to many restaurants and parking was never an issue. We would definitely stay again.
