Ruben was a superb host, very thoughtful about his guests' comfort. He has available many more amenities than I had thought of. He was easy to contact for questions and guidance. The room we stayed in is very comfortable and his 2 people friendly cats are a bonus. I was missing our 2 kittys, and Mocha and Cleo stepped right in to provide kitty comfort for me. Butter was a sweet dog, also. The bathroom is large and luxurious, and it was not a problem to share it with the other guest room. The other guests were a friendly young couple from France, so being in a house with them was a plus. In a hotel we wouldn't have visited personally like we did in Ruben's house. As a guest who enjoys neighborhoods, walking and public transportation, Ruben's house is located within range of the capitol tourist sights we came to view, but if one's energy is limited, it might be a bit far from tourist destinations. Ruben is warm hearted and welcoming. We enjoyed staying in his home.
