I stayed at 3 airing spots this trip and this one was by far my favorite. My host Sandy was away, but her roommate John was wonderful. He helped me with directions, transportation, gave me a lift to Waterloo station , and was a pleasure to talk to. My room was clean, bright, cheerful, and I felt comfortable cooking up a quick snack/meal. I could keep my beer and cheese cold in the fridge, and generally felt completely at home. Once I got the hang of the rail Stations I did OK on getting around. I felt safe in this neighborhood and would recommend this home to anyone. It was an excellent experience.
