Staying at Yvonne's is like the perfect combination of staying at a good friend's house and staying at a hotel. There are all the sweet little personal touches that make a house feel like a home with all the benefits and conveniences of staying at a hotel in the middle of the city. Games, tons of DVDs, a fantastic guest books with all sorts of tips for stuff to do and ways to get around, beautiful relaxing garden, stylish, homey decor, environmentally conscious trash/recycling/composting receptacles -- there was a loving touch around every corner. We ate breakfast outside on the picnic table in the tranquil garden. We were able to walk to the grocery store, restaurants, public transit, laundromat and anything else we needed. It was just lovely. And Yvonne is wonderful.
