Taya is a very conscientious host. When I arrived, fresh bagels and beer were in the fridge. The room itself is very spacious, and there's a good-sized table with chairs that's very handy. There's a ceiling fan and AC, and the room faces the garden. All-in-all, it's a very comfortable, private-feeling room -- with a bathroom right next door. Taya's cat is super sweet.

The neighborhood is great, with lots of interesting stores and restaurants. I particularly loved the Red Lantern Bicycles, which is also a cafe that serves great vegan sandwiches, homemade smoothies, etc. -- and a very good $6 glass of wine!
