I was very happy with my stay at Karri and Brian's lower-level space!
They both greeted my warmly and their dog and mine got to sniff and play a little, which was great, and I felt very welcomed!
The space is cozy, it is neat, very nicely decorated, and was kept quite warm with a space heater and the furnace for the house. The space was very clean and nicely decorated - I felt comfy enough to make myself feel at home.
A couple things worth noting: the furnace runs all the time, so if you are very sensitive to noise, you may want to bring ear plugs (I didn't have an issue with it - it is kind of a low-frequency white noise), and while there are lots of lights, it is a basement, so there is limited natural light. Also note, I was there in the middle of winter when there wasn't much natural light anyway! I wound up spending most of my time outdoors, as Mt Tabor is a block away!
