I had a fantastic roommate for two years who put up with a lot of $#*! from me. The most memorable thing that happened was when a blue whale died and washed up on a nearby beach, so I got up the following morning at 4 a.m. to take a quick look at it before work. I brought back a chunk of baleen with me and stuck it under my bed. By the time my roommate woke up the room REEKED of dead whale and continued to do so for at least three days even after we put it away in a Tupperware container. It was really gross. She ended up moving out and I had an empty room and bills to pay. A friend of mine suggested I list the room for rent on Roomster after they had used the site with great success. It was easy enough to create the listing and their customer service was extremely helpful in answering any questions I had. After a few weeks I found a really great person to rent the room to.
