This was a budget stay for us - cheapest listing we could find that didn't seem sketchy to us. Things we didn't like: no locks on our room door (didn't feel comfortable staying in a big house with many strangers/guests and not being able to lock our door at night or while we're away for the day with all our belongings in the room). The house is old, beautiful, and massive! It felt like we went back in time. Very cool! There was only one shower for all the guests and we had to wait in a small line in the mornings which was annoying especially when we had to be somewhere at a specific time. The commute into downtown is about 30-40 minutes so it is quite a ways out. The area the house is in is quite sketchy in the evening and night time. Our bus driver was surprised that we had chosen that area to stay in as she lives there. She said "you better watch your back" - you can see many less than favourable characters all around the streets, so be prepared for that. We never met Ryan when we stayed there but he was very responsive via AirBnB messaging. It was a decent stay but next time we will pay more to stay more centrally to the city core and in a less sketchy neighbourhood. The house had many ammentities and even a little shop where you could buy some groceries which was neat and something we haven't seen before. It achieved our main objective which was a clean and comfortable stay. Thanks for having us!
