Great location, clean, comfortable, affordable. Got complimentary breakfast.
You have to be really quiet, loud AC in the room kept waking us up

Got that great view. The place is not far from the border crossing. The Wi-Fi connection was decent, there are also kettle and microwave available along with tea and coffee options, which is great. Shared bathroom is large and has big shower, I had no issue using that since it was free most of the time.
The parking approach is quite confusing to me, I guess you have to park on the street. Hard to talk to the owner and understand each other, though it wasn't an issue when communicating through the app. Place was clean mostly, but I found a huge hair strain on my pillow. There was no coat hangers to put my jacket in the room. It might get noisy as well, I could hear cars passing by, there is a jar of earplugs that you can use.

The location is good, it's close to the border. The free parking was appreciated and I could check in late. This is basically like a hostel with a private room. Shared common areas and bathroom. I liked the extra blanket in the closet since the covers were thin.
Once I booked there were a lot of messages that went through my email. So many that I missed the owner asking me if I needed a parking spot. Once you open the emails you see several boxed sections of text, it's confusing to see the owner's current message and easy to miss correspondence. Once I asked about where to park the owner screenshot the question I missed and kept showing me that I missed his question about parking several times. I'm not sure what that was about, I just wanted the instruction for where to park. He eventually sent me a text with the instructions. There's a dog on the property that barked at me when I came in, and in the morning when I was leaving. This would have possibly woken other guests up. The kitchen is dirty and cluttered. There was a full sink of dirty dishes to wash. Cleanliness wasn't the greatest. My room had been sprayed with an air freshener. I had to open the window to air it out before going to sleep.

What an absolute treat to stay in this lovely, clean, warm and loving home. I can't say enough about how cozy, comfortable and safe I felt there. Alan is an absolute gem of a man who clearly loves making guests feel welcome. Every detail was so lovingly thought out. It is really hard to describe the experience of staying here, but within minutes of arriving I felt as if all of my stresses had dissolved completely. I loved the little basket of treats in my room, and how Alan had the bedside lamp switched on and a video of a crackling fireplace playing on the t.v. screen. The amenities just outside of the rooms included a fridge, microwave, coffee and tea supplies. And the big beautiful common area and kitchen downstairs were amazing.
No complaints. Everything was perfect.

Very friendly hosts, met me halfway all the time. Location is perfect. The Detroit River is just across the road. The railway station and the city centre are just in 15 minutes on foot in different directions. Very good coffee. The products for breakfast were fresh and of good quality for the price. Thank you, Alan, and the whole family, for your hospitality and kindness.
Everything was fine at the accommodation facility. As a suggestion to the local government of Windsor, ON, please, arrange more road crossings for pedestrians in your city with signs and bright stripes on the road surface. It is not normal to walk for 200-300 m in a modern Canadian city to find a safe crossing.

The whole house was really cute and homey, and the bed is probably one of the most comfortable ones I have ever slept in! I also greatly appreciated the kindness of the host -- a pleasure to meet, and I hope we meet again!

Location was excellent. Right on the trail and minutes from the Detroit Windsor tunnel or bridge. Nicely updated private bathroom with decent water pressure. Clean room with small closet and chairs with table to set all your things. There was no balcony seating so I just used a chair from the room and put it back when finished. Nice west-facing view from balcony overlooking river and downtown Detroit. Easy self access to house and room. Other guests were no issue.
One side of the bed had a huge dip in it, probably time to replace mattress, I slept in the middle so it wasn’t a big deal for me and still overall comfortable, good pillows, but something to consider if booking for two people. I also prefer accommodations with all white bedding, makes for a cleaner consistent feel.
5.0
The bed was extremely comfortable. The location was as advertised across from the river with a very nice view from the bedroom window. The host was very kind. The tray of water and apple juice in the room was a nice touch.
The place was not advertised as a homestay on booking.com. It wasn't clear we had to share a washroom. Beautiful big bathroom but the shower was dirty and 4 of 5 bathroom lights were burnt out. The blind in the bedroom was broken and we had to hold it down with hair ties and paper clips. The narrow stair case and number of stairs were not advertised and were a difficult climb for my husband.

Very nice location, conveniently located downtown with quick access to the train station, theatre, and nice restaurants. The staff was nice and responsive to messages. The room was comfortable and clean.
The walls are very thin so it is very easy to hear other guests.

location and price
2 mismatched flat queen sheets on a King bed (needs a fitted sheet)
needs decent pillows (to replace existing ones)
too much junkie furniture everywhere
2 of the 3 blinds on windows didn’t stay closed so we had to put clamps to keep them down.
