Songren and his family were extremely hospitable throughout my stay. Communication was great the entire time and the host had made it easy to reach out for questions or help. Renee takes great pride in her cooking and it was a sheer delight to experience some of their homecooked meals even as a local. The atmosphere was always lively which made the stay feel like home.
Location was ideal for me as I was specifically looking for a place away from the busyness of the city. The neighbourhood has quite a few options for cafes, restaurants, and bars that are reachable by foot. It has a nearby park connector which is great for some long walks and greenery.
