My stay at Shane's place was good. The house and location are great. What he has done in the basement to make living quarters is amazing. It has 2 rooms, bathroom, nearly a full kitchen, dining area and washer/dryer. I believe someone else was staying in the room next to mine so upon entering I noticed the trash was half full and the bathroom wasn't spotless. But like I said someone else was staying there too. The rooms have locks on the doors but the main entrance to the basement was never locked. At first this was a concern of mine but nothing odd came of it. The laundry in the basement is shared with the rest of the house and rules state use is available from 9am-9pm. Only once was someone finishing their laundry, unfortunately, around 11:30pm. It wasn't much of a bother but it did wake me since it is so close to the room. Shane was traveling when I stayed and was never able to meet him and thank him. I could see this being a great place for someone to be at for a longer period of time and would consider it for myself. It is really close to many many restaurants, bars, shops, etc. Just a few minutes walk will get you to everything you need.
