Brad is a great and very friendly host. If you want, he will introduce you to the area, shops, restaurants, sights etc. Really helpful information. Of course he will also respond to any inquiries you may have during the stay. I wouldn't hesitate at all to book with him again. The room/apartment (on the first floor) was well appointed and very quiet. It served it's purpose. It was exactly as in the pics. Location is very good; between the 228 Peach Park and Ximen St. (5 min walking to Xiemen St and 3 min to the park).
