My two friends and I stayed at Linda's home for a short visit this weekend. Linda's mom was gracious enough to meet us upon our arrival at midnight Friday! The home was not only beautiful and clean, but very spacious. We turned the living room into a third bedroom, and the door shuts for plenty of privacy. A bonus were the numerous tv channels (like CNN) in English, of course. Worked perfectly for three roommates. The location was also fantastic. It is close to the metro, but we never used it, because the entire city is very walkable. Nothing is really more than a 30 min walk, with plenty of views and attractions en route. There is also a gorgeous set of lakes nearby that allow for a perfect 5 mile run or walk, a nice bagel shop for breakfast, and a stocked corner store open 24 hours just downstairs, in addition to the nearby supermarket. I would definitely recommend this for two couples or three friends.
