Richard was a fantastic host. Great communication leading up to the trip and his instructuons were easy to follow. The house is in a charming and hip neighbourhood. Close enough to downtown but also gives you the opportunity to see a different side of the city. Richard has lots of great restaurants and attractions laid out in his travel book. It was like staying at a hotel but better. He was always welcoming and provided lots of worthwhile tips and ideas. If we ever return to the area we would not hesitate to stay here again
