Michael’s space is ideally located in Russell Square area. It’s free of street noise being located further back in the building. The wood plank floors are beyond squeaky, but since we weren’t staying below, it was not a big issue. The kitchen is not properly equipped for cooking. We scrambled eggs in a Teflon 6 quart pot and used a cake batter spatula to stir. But they tasted fine and I might even try making that way at home. Sound travels through the walls in the building, however the neighbors were quiet after 11:00. I left Michael a few more comments that would bring his place up to a 5 rating if followed. I recommend his place and he was an attentive host. Thanks!
