Jose and Ali have infused this place with an amazing energy. The loft itself is a gem -- art and interesting decor in every nook, a Steinway grand (in tune!), and a couple retro motorbikes just adding to the ambiance (because why not, right?). The location is excellent -- close to lots of local activity, and also on a streetcar line or a cheap cab ride to downtown. There's a constant buzz of activity in the loft; friends coming in and out, enjoying coffee or a whiskey, friendly banter. I felt welcome immediately. J&A are incredibly generous as hosts, offering many times to lend me this or that. I was really bummed to leave after 2 weeks and will go back for sure.
