The place is as described and Marco is communicative. Marco has a roommate so don't be surprised by that. Both are friendly and don't bother you. You may want to bring earplugs (walls/floors are thin and you can hear neighbors walking around to some extent) and one of those blindfold-things to keep the light out (balcony is nice but that also means a glass door that lets the first morning light in - the curtain filters it a little but it's still pretty bright). The location is a 10-minute walk from the 30th Ave N/W subway stop. The walk is safe through a nice neighborhood. All in all good value and I would recommend it.
