From the time of our reservation until the end of our stay, Nico was excellent at communicating with us and making us feel welcome in his home. We easily found affordable parking nearby and the location is perfect. It was easy to get to the convention center by transit for my professional conference and the house is in the perfect central location from which to launch our adventures in the city as family. The neighborhood is amazing with wonderful shops, restaurants with food from around the world, and delicious local coffee. The house is a delightful home to come back to at the end of the day (and a cozy place to spend a day reading books). The attention to detail in the home is spectacular--all of us loved all of the cozy chairs in just the right places. We felt so welcome, our boys started calling it "our house" by the end our stay. We can't say enough good things about our experience!
