Ian is an amazing host. He was very prompt in replying to all my messages. Meeting him in person was a pleasure for both my wife and myself. We spent quite a bit of time chatting about his and our traveling experiences, discussing the same places that all of us visited and comparing our impressions. Ian gave a lot of useful tips and suggestions, which we were very happy to have followed. Ian's place is unique in that you have an entire attic with plenty of space, huge skylights, a turntable with a bunch of records (you can hook up your bluetooth device too!), and a hammock. Ian welcomed us to use his kitchen, which is a great feature for many travelers. I cannot recommend Ian and his place highly enough!
