Ken's spot is very nice inside and the off street parking really came in handy! He graciously met us at his place even with an injury to make sure we got settled in (hope you're feeling better!). Just a few streets over is more of the local scene and a very cute main street. It was a bit of a hike (only because the old city is on a HUGE hill and we were across the water) from the old city center but it was a short one, about 18-27 minutes depending on where you go. Ken's place has all these little placards everywhere of really helpful tips (emergency numbers, wifi, spices, "serve yourself" in the fridge, etc). He really is a spectacularly thoughtful host. The rooms are sweet and comfortable, and the Netflix on our rainy rainy trip really made our nights in comfortable and enjoyable. His living room is very cozy and homey and the kitchen was well stocked as well. We ran out of time with the dishes, so there's a huge pile (so sorry Ken!), but he was so gracious and told us to not to worry about it.
