Ampere is the best host you can imagine. Always accommodating, social, and he even served Asian food for me on numerous occasions during my month-long stay here. The room facing the street is a gem of a work space as well with three windows surrounding you so you're facing the action down both sides of the street. Kitchen and bathroom were always clean and everything in order. Lastly, you feel like a co-resident here rather than just a guest and people generally stay for longer periods here. Highly recommend Ampere's place as a quiet place to get work done or as a peaceful platform from which to explore the city via Forest station just a block away.
