Ben was a very responsive and accommodating host, and his place was perfect as a home base for my trip. While not a large space, it was functional while still welcoming, and very comfortable for me as a solo traveler. As the basement unit of a house on a residential street, the space is also really quiet, which made it a great evening refuge after a long day at a conference. Location was very convenient - walking distance to blocks of shops/cafes and public transportation is easily accessible. Overall a great option, especially for single guests. Would definitely stay here again!
