We had a great time in Brett's appartment. It's clean, the bed is confortable and the bathroom is nice, with a big shower.
It's a nice location to visit the city, with the subway nearby (around 5 min by feet), in a safe neighborhood. The main touristic places are at 2-3 subway stops, so it's really easy.
The zoo and the lake shore are quite close by feet and it's really nice to go there when the weather is good.
Brett is really nice and welcoming, he answered our questions very quickly and made us feel like he was there if we needed anything.
