Gail's home was a lovely oasis in a picture perfect neighborhood. It's extremely close to public transit, lovely cafes, a nice park, and a great pizza joint. It's a cosy space with good light, well stocked kitchen, and a lovely back garden to enjoy. Gail was extremely communicative and helpful during our stay. Since it's a first level apartment, I would recommend bringing ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. There is some noise from above, but nothing unusual if you're used to apartment living. We had a great time and would love to stay with Gail again.
