I was a student from France, province attending to the University of Waterloo in the fall of 2006 and decided to settle in Blythwood Rd after visiting Carlos's website. The house is not very close but accessible to University of Waterloo and Laurier University, but nothing that can't be done by foot or with a bike (I'd say 3 kilometers, give or take). Buses allow to easily go to she shopping malls or the Universities, Carlos was kind enough to lend me his bike for the duration of the rent, and as long as it's not snowing that is the easiest way to go anywhere in Waterloo.  The house is nice, and there's everything you need (pans, pots, blankets, but also cable TV and Internet access).–Lucas, past student

I've been a French student at the University of Waterloo for 6 months (from the beginning of May to the end of October 2008). I've been a tenant at 69 Blythwood Rd. in Waterloo since my arrival to Canada. I sent two months' rent -900$ - to Carlos Tipan using Western Union. There were no bad surprises in this transaction. As soon as Carlos received the money, he reserved my room. The weekend following my arrival, Carlos carne to show me the house in detail and drove me around to see all of the surroundings and showed me the interesting businesses.–Emmanuel, student
