The Roost was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. We did not have a car, and that wasn't a problem for getting around. We would stay there again.

Jean-Sébastien was always quick to respond to messages. We needed to ask for a bathmat and clothes hangers, and Joshua delivered them just a couple of hours later. Both of them were friendly and respectful of our privacy.

Things you might want to know: The animals were quiet. The path from the street to the door can be a bit narrow, and the apartment is down a set of stairs. We could hear a few footsteps coming from above, but nothing unreasonable. Because it's on a hill, the basement apartment still let in a lot of light. We were there in unusually hot weather and the apartment was cool. There is a smoke detector in the kitchen, so you should heed the advice to open the window and use the fan if you cook. The apartment door at the bottom of the stairs has a chain lock, and the door from the top of the stairs/laundry room to the outside has a deadbolt with a numeric keypad instead of keys. The living room window had a peaceful view of the garden and its butterflies.
