Shaun's place was great. It is a nice room we felt welcomed and welcome to use the rest of the apartment as we needed. There is a nice backyard, the kitchen and bathroom are good and there is a tv and wifi easily available. The location is bit of a walk (20 minutes) from the more touristy areas but there is good bus service and the walk is interesting and passes through a diverse neightborhood. Shaun was not around very much, but when he was around, he was a good and helpful host. He willingly answered all the questions we had...and offered suggestions about where to go, good inexpensive places to eat and what buses to take. We felt comfortable and enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.
