Within a few minutes of arriving from a very long train journey
we were sitting with Mat having a beer and chatting away. Mat and Randy are friendly and welcoming in a totally natural way that puts you right at ease. They love their neighbourhood and they love their city and by the time we left we did too, in huge part thanks to them. They're kind and attentive, excellent company and full of helpful details around whatever you're interested in. We covered a lot of ground in the city with their tips to hand, coming home late to a warm house and a super-comfy bed. Their house is so amazing though, it was always a bit of a wrench to leave it in the morning (not that they force you out the door, far from it, you could just hang out if you want, they have a garden too). They did the place up from scratch and everything, from design to decoration to furnishing, is stunning: it's really tasteful, but not in a cold way. We loved them, their house and their neighbourhood. We feel privileged to have found these great hosts and perfect setting.
