Shawn was very friendly and helpful, while respecting our privacy once we had everything we needed. We enjoyed the art in the apartment, and it was well-kept and clean. I figured the extra half bathroom would be a plus with other roommates in the apartment, but we barely saw anyone else, and never felt like we were in anyone's way. The proximity to the subway is great. The bed was actually a futon, but I slept like a log on it nonetheless. Great host, I recommend!
