I stayed at Suankhim' s place for one month and I think that I was extremely lucky. Suankhim and her family are great people that made me feel very comfortable at their place. They gave me instructions on where to go for everything, even for parks to go for running. We also spent time out together where they offered me the opportunity to taste a traditional local dinner. They are very polite and discrete people. The place is very clean and comfortable, very close to bus stops and train as well as very close (10 min) to NUS. Her helper was very polite and she was doing my laundry on daily basis. The area is very quiet and surrounded by parks. I definitely recommend this place.
