Although I did not have the opportunity to personally meet Xiong, I met with his neighbor Reina. Both were very courteous, and it was easy interacting with them. During my stay, I had his entire 2br apt to myself and it was wonderful. It was clean, comfortable, and quiet, as advertised in the listing. The bus stop that takes you downtown is a 2-3 min walk away. All in all, it was a great experience.
