My parents and I had a great stay with Ric!
Check-in was easy and we could even check in earlier than the quoted check-in time. Ric was very accommodating and even drove to Mt Eden with us in the evening. The room and everything else was clean.
The center is easily reachable by bus, but we chose to take Uber, which came down to about $15.
Overall, I would recommend staying with Ric!
