David's loft exceeded my expectations in every way. It was squeaky clean and beautifully done, very hip and comfortable, and the extra half-bath downstairs was a great addition. Others have commented on the vinyl collection: great fun and for anyone who lived in 70s+, an unexpected chance to bring back memories. The rhythm of having to stand up to change LPs every half hour or so was as good as a sit/stand desk. The loft has great light, windows on all directions, and the kitchen had every appliance/dish/pan you might need as well as high-end condiments. I did not have a car, but enjoyed the nearby coffee shops, restaurants, bars and markets. It is also a 10-block (short blocks) to the busy part of Alberta Street NE, which is full of eateries and stores and galleries. There is also a spa/hot tub retreat nearby with both coed and gender specific times. The buses are within a block, and the neighborhood is residential and very quiet. There's a high efficiency washer and a dryer, and a lovely full bath with soaking tub upstairs by the bedroom loft. Bed and pillows were high quality and very comfortable, as was the couch which is also an extra sleeping bed if needed.
It's a separate stand alone unit, so you have full privacy.
David was extremely helpful and my only regret is not having time to get to know him better.
