Russell is very nice and has a lovely home. The layout of the rental space could not be better. As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe and comfortable in the home and neighborhood. My interactions with Russell were very limited given my schedule. He was inviting and willing to interact with his guests.

We did have one hiccup. On the third day of my four night stay, Russell held a party and allowed his guests to use the bathroom that was part my rental. He informed me of his intention to do the same after I had left the home for the day via voicemail and e-mail. I objected and expressed concern as my belongings were in the space, the bathroom was advertised as "private" space, and at no time did I consent to the same. I was aware that the party would take place, but never imagined that he would believe it acceptable to access to the rental space either for his own use or for the use of his party attendees. I asked that he clean the space before I returned home and he did so.
