We loved staying with Brian! He is a giving, considerate, and fun guy. He is also a great musician. The room was comfortable, clean, and spacious. We found it easy to get to the central city and back by bus, cab and bike from his home. His neighborhood is a perfect place to stay if you want to explore parts of the city less traveled like the Brad Pitt houses, the challmette battlefield, and restaurants like Cafe Dauphine which is just a block away from Brian's place. We definitely plan on coming back.
