John was a perfect host. He showed us around right when we got there and immediately made us feel welcome (as well as Max - his dog). You can tell that a lot of thought and care has been put into the living space for guests. There was fresh fruit in our room and everything we could possibly need, plus a dresser full of boardgames? Yes please! The description was 100% accurate and actually more beautiful in person and very clean. We had lots of privacy and quiet time when we needed it but also access to everything else we wanted to do. The neighbourhood was safe and nightlife and food is only a 20 min walk away including; live music, restaurants, coffee shops, small art galleries, a market, and liquor store. It's also located right in front of a bus stop that goes downtown. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks John!
