We spent four nights at Ian's place. The location is perfect, just a few minutes away from a T station on the red line, from which we can quickly get downtown. There is also plenty of restaurants around. Ian is an agreeable host, happily sharing its kitchen complete with all the condiments and cookware one might need (including a real espresso machine!) . Between Ian living there and the two rented rooms, we were afraid we would be stepping on each other in the kitchen or the bathroom but that didn't happen. We might have been lucky but we almost felt we had the apartment by ourselves. Perhaps the only aspect that might need to be improved is the kitchen and bathroom cleanliness (the room was OK). We also might have liked a lock on our room door.
