First, the positives: this place is decorated really nicely. The host and hostess have great style. The linens both on the bed and in the bathroom were absolutely top notch. Maybe the best linens I have ever used. A great shower. Lots of hot water and, again, very stylish. Breakfast was self serve and they provided us with organic and local options with great coffee and nice teas. Generally the space is pretty quiet for being on a semi busy road - we could barely hear any traffic at all.
The downside to this listing is it is very much a basement suite. The tile floors are frigid cold on the feet and we never really felt warm, even with the heaters running full blast and extra blankets for the bed.
There are a couple of Windows at about level with the grade outside and while I was grateful for Windows they were covered up with curtains or else there would be zero privacy.
Finally, we didn't sleep well because there was a random loud noise throughout the night that seemed to be coming from just outside the window or upstairs in the house. Couldn't figure it out :(
Also, on the second morning of our stay, the clock radio blasted us awake at both 6 and again at 7 am and we couldn't figure out why it was happening and it didn't occur on the first morning. Definitely not great.
The location is pretty great. A 4 minute walk to the MAX orange line but generally a 10-20 minute walk to most everything else you might want to see in the neighbourhood. Would
Be better if you had a car. We were on foot.
