Julie was a very gracious host. She was very welcoming and made me feel at home. Her home is exactly like in the pictures...immaculately clean and uncluttered and needless to say very tastefully decorated. She provided healthy breakfast and great coffee with a press of a button...which was helpful in the morning when I was rushing out. We had wonderful conversations and she had really helpful ideas of places to eat and visit. She gave me a map of the city and explained the general layout. Her home is located in the heart of a very vibrant and lively neighbourhood with walkable distance to many wonderful restaurants notably Sway (thai food).
