My stay with Fiona, Deran, and Butters was fantastic!! They are excellent hosts and were very accommodating and communicative. They left me lots of personal space and were fun to hang out with when we had a late night chat. Butters is so cute! He was very rambunctious when I first met him, but was much calmer the subsequent times I saw him. Fiona and Deran were also respectful of how much interaction with Butters I would or wouldn't like to have.
The place was exactly as shown in the photos. It was very clean and beautifully decorated. I stayed for 4 nights while I was moving to town and starting a new job. The breakfast they included was a godsend and they were kind enough to adjust the time they served it on the days I had to leave the house earlier. When they say light breakfast, I was thinking like a pastry or some cereal, but they served me hot meals everyday and it was more than I expected which I really appreciate! They even took care of all the dishes! I didn't end up using the kitchen other than to store some leftovers in the fridge but they left me an entire shelf to myself.
The bed was very comfortable, soft, but not mushy. The blankets and pillows were very cozy. The room was well appointed with thoughtful touches like a basket of snacks, a carafe of water with a glass, a bathrobe, basic toiletries, and a fresh loofah! There was plenty of room to lay out all my bags. There was even a little nightlight in each room of the apartment to find your way around at night.
The location is very conveniently accessible to several subway lines. The proximity to Prospect Park is unbeatable. The neighbourhood is very lively and I felt safe walking around.
I highly recommend this place!
