Number 8
Pros:

Quiet but central, safe, comfortable bed, tea and coffee making facilities, plenty of clean towels, soap, shampoo and conditioner provided.

Cons:

If I'm nitpicking, the shower was ok but I found it a bit awkward to turn on, the TV only has live channels (unless I was missing something).

Highly recommended
Pros:

We loved everything! Beautiful apartment, great location, very clean and comfortable. Well equipped, coffee machine, tea...everything...We recommend it. Parking is in a nearby garage, which is paid for by the guest, but the prices are good.

Clean, super-well located, surprisingly quiet, very comfortable bed!
Pros:

I loved the cafe next door which is attached to the lodging. I loved the fact the owners run a non-profit cafe next door to support folks in need and in transition. While the room was smaller than I expected, I would definitely stay there because the owners are such good people out there doing good things. I witnessed unbelievable humanity.

Cons:

Size of the room. I would have liked a chair and small table. I did have a bit of trouble checking in with the codes. The front door code didn't work so I had to message the owner who messaged back a correct code.
