Our hosts made us feel welcome and gave us a tour upon arrival. The room was large and comfortable with plenty of storage and a place to work. The surrounding neighbourhood was filled with shops, cafes and restaurants and was very vibrant. We enjoyed our stay with Alison and Les.

All aspects of the description were accurate. However, when we read about the shared bathroom, we had imagined that we might be sharing a bathroom with those who had rented the smaller room next to ours. We were surprised to discover that the one bathroom was to be shared by the home owners as well as the guests in three rented bedrooms.
