My wife and I stayed here with our two children (8 and 4), and had a great experience. Ross is an ideal host - there when you need him, not there when you do not. He makes you feel at home from the get-go, even helping us carry our luggage.
His place is clean, well-appointed, and comfortable. All aspects of the place are nice - the kitchen has everything you need, the king-sized bed is incredibly comfortable, the living room area is inviting, and even the shower is great! He made check-in and staying very easy. The fresh coffee is very helpful (and quite good), and the miscellaneous snacks and drinks are a nice touch.
The private entrance is secure, and the neighborhood is lovely and walkable. The walk to the metro is very manageable, and once you are there it is very easy to get wherever you need to go.
Parking is everywhere, but word to the wise: if you are trying to park on a Monday or Tuesday between 9am and 11:30am, you may be looking around for a bit for a spot because of street sweeping. But Ross warns you of that, and I only had to park a block or two away.
The only knock on the place is that noise carries pretty easily from the 1st floor above to your apartment, so if you need complete quiet this might not work for you. But this was only a minor and infrequent inconvenience, and for us was far overridden by the quality of the apartment, the location and price, and Ross's hospitality.
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience, and would not hesitate to stay there again. It's a very good value. Highly recommended!
