Helen was a great hostess & so helpful to me.
The room is comfortable & her sweet kitty may come visit you if you'd like. Large desk & plenty of closet/desk space.
I loved using the large kitchen & talking food with Helen.
Neighbors on the street are friendly.
I will say, when you get off her street onto Western where bus stops are located, it can be a bit more rough neighborhood. So depending on your comfort with that in a big city or need of using public transit at night, it's something to keep in mind.
Otherwise, it's a good spot, particularly for folk wanting to be near the university
