Michaels place is very neat and beautiful. His little courtyard garden is lovely and the room is nice and spacious. The place has glass doors and though they are frosted, they are not sound proof, therefore you can hear Michaels business Skype conversations from his next door office. The nearby area of woodstock is vibrant and interesting in the daytime. There's a couple of nice cafees nearby. I enjoyed Victoria196 a lot while I was there. Michaels place is lovely as a base if youre here to explore the city, but if home and recreational time is important to you, I would choose differently.
