Elmar was the best host! He greeted us and took time to show us around the rental. The space was super clean, safe and secure, and cozy. They have thought of everything- the kitchen was fully stocked with anything you would need to prepare a meal, a washer/dryer with detergent, clean linens and towels, hot shower, directions to the closest coffee and markets, and a great location. We had our own entrance from the back alley, in the hip, up and coming Shaw district. The only thing we regret is not having a beer with him and his wife during our stay!
