We had 3 people staying 4 nights at Mark's place. Mark was very responsive and the booking was easy. We didn't meet Mark. Instructions to the location and house rules were clear. The apartment was exactly like in photos, it was not the entire home, but the garden level and the space was not big. We were there before the new year, hot tub and garden table/chairs were all covered and we did not use them. We didn't use the kitchen much, and it was a bit low in the supplies of tea/coffee, so we got our own from nearby grocery stores, I think it depends on the host. in The apt was conveniently located in a residential area, quiet and cozy, close to the Queen Elizabeth Park and not far away from downtown. Many restaurants and cafes on Main street. Overall, it was a comfortable stay.
