Mary Joan and her husband Dan were friendly and welcoming hosts and were happy to offer suggestions etc. offered coffee or tea and allowed me to store my breakfast yogurt in their fridge and use their very modern and stylish tiny kitchen! Their apartment is arty and eclectic. The space provided for guests is a curtained off area of their ‘basement’ where they also have a personal exercise area also curtained off. Nevertheless, as a solo traveller, I felt secure and comfortable and this was not an issue at all for me. Everything was clean and nicely presented. I have no hesitation in recommending Mary Joan’s!
