Passant's place is really a fantastic value for being close to the city! It's very clean, although the bedroom carpet could be replaced.. The only thing you need to be aware of is that he does have some small children and you can hear them running around sometimes. I don't have a problem with it since I also have a toddler (so it was like being at home!). During my stay there really was only one hiccup. I was never told that the water would be shut off by the city during first day of my stay at 9am......so I couldn't shower until almost 4pm. I wish he would have said something but the only response I got was that he thought I was gone for the day and didn't bother to mention it.
Oh well, not a big deal. Otherwise it was a great stay and I would certainly recommend it :)
P.S. Bring your own shampoo/shower gel. But if you forget there is a CVS two blocks away next to the subway
