Eric's place is in a lovely neighbourhood with lots of charm in a nice location. The place itself is small and somewhat dark in the winter, but it does have a nice little backyard. It is OK for a night or two for a couple if you are not planning to spend much time in it. It gets a little depressing for more than that because of the lack of natural light. It was reasonably clean. We had one towel each, however, I found it not quite enough for a 4-night stay. The kitchen was stocked with coffee, coffee maker, french presses, some spices, and some pasta and canned pasta sauce. My understanding is that this place is primarily used as an Airbnb. There are plusses and minuses to that:
The Positive: If you are not comfortable sharing someone else's space, this place is ideal. It is basically a small furnished apartment.
The Negative: It misses things that you would naturally find in a lived-in apartment, like a mop to clean the floor, or an extra towel to put on the bathroom floor, or a small waste bin in the bathroom, or coffee cream in the cupboard. If you look forward to meeting your host and having friendly conversations, this won't do it.
