Thierry was very prompt with his reply to my request for a space, and it made me feel very welcomed right away. It was easy to get to his place, and the neighborhood is an established one. I felt very safe, and parking was off-street. Thierry & his wife Diane were very friendly and helpful, and we enjoyed our conversations about family and travels. The house is roomy, but also quite cozy, and we had an en suite bath with double sinks and a nice big shower. The bed was very comfy with memory foam topper which was quite supportive (no squeaky springs). Even the cats were sweet. I was allowed to use the extra fridge for a few things, and was given use of the kitchen, which I loved, to prepare breakfast and cups of tea. There were 2 common areas (upstairs & downstairs), so it was a great place to lounge, read, watch tv, socialize, etc. In summary, I'd like to say that it was one of the best places I've stayed, and I would not hesitate to go back one day! It felt very close to home...
