Robert, our host, is charming, intelligent and helpful. The home is tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable. Kitchen is fully equipped but who wants to cook?? The house is located close to amenities (coffee shop half a block away, public transit one block away, restaurants within walking distance, downtown within walking distance, charming neighbourhood). It should be mentioned, however, that there is construction going on around the house, detracting from the exterior. That being said, we weren't bothered by noise or dust, as we were absent during the day. Our overall experience was very positive and I would highly recommend this listing.
