The best kind of AirBnB stay! I think for many of us long-time AirBnB users, the special thing about staying with a host is getting the chance to feel like you are a welcomed guest in someone's house, and staying with Shawn actually felt like coming to the place of someone you know, which is super relaxing after a hectic work day and flight. Shawn is funny and generous, Eddie is quiet and kind -- and Bert (cat) is cute and friendly.
As for the room itself, it is very comfortable with fluffy blankets, a reading lamp, and a towel rack. I appreciated the space heater as well as I was in town for the cold snap! The window is by the street if that's a concern for light sleepers: we had a bit of noise that evening and Shawn inquired the following morning if that had disturbed my sleep quality at all. I was fine but it was nice of him to ask.
The bathroom is also well-kept, very clean with both a rain shower and a handheld showerhead. It's situated separately in the hall not connected to any bedrooms, and I appreciated this as someone who tends to take evening showers.
All in all I had a great stay and appreciated very much Shawn, Eddie and Bert's hospitality and making a dreary work trip bearable :)
