Heidi was a great host! Always available and very attentive. She thoughtfully supplied us with fresh coffee and fruit, and responded immediately whenever we contacted her. Her space is exactly as pictured: large, sunny, and cheerful. The beds were amazingly comfortable, and it was quiet at night. We actually slept better there than we do at home. We really enjoyed the creative touches, such as the record player, vintage Scandinavian ceramics, beautiful textiles, and of course Heidi's eclectic art collection. There were only four of us (two couples), but there were enough beds for another 6 people, so I can see how this place would be great for a group. We loved the location. There are some great bars and restaurants within walking distance (Toro Bravo was excellent) and there's a bus stop about block away that will take you to downtown, Pearl, Alberta St, SE Hawthorne, or anywhere else you'd want to go. There is also a designated parking spot included with the loft. We brought a car with us, but mostly used public transit since it was so easy.

We loved the place and would absolutely stay there again.
