Joek's place is very nice and clean. The bed is firm, but very comfortable. It's bigger than you expect. There are local restaurants and shopping, but most likely you will take the train to downtown. It's easy. I like how everything in the kitchen is clean, not like some places where the kitchen is staffed with tons of extra cooking tools which are dirty. The washer/dryer unit is in Joek's living space. He is flexible on letting you use it when you need.
