Shaun's place is really convenient for the local transit rail service (the L) with the station about 10 minutes walk away and a direct ride into the city centre. It's a similar distance to bars and restaurants.
Our bedroom and bathroom were very comfortable and clean, and we loved the balcony to sit in the sun with a book and bottle of wine.
Shaun is a welcoming host and is around as much or as little as you need.
A definite recommendation from us.
