Malek is a great host. will go out of his way to help with whatever you need. However, the place is old and rickety. probably okay for single or couples but not great for families. No curtain in the bedroom meant my kids were up 6am. Outside sofa bed was broken, meant we couldn't sleep in the living room. The location is fantastic, walkable to all the restaurants on st Catherine at the same time not too loud at night.
