Natalie was quick to respond whenever i needed to reach out to her.

The apartment itself is small, but ample for one person. It gets pretty hot in the summer because there's only an airconditioning unit in the bedroom, but I imagine in months that aren't June - August, the temperature would be fine.

At first I felt a bit uncomfortable, particularly at night, as just down the street under the bridge was a group of about 40 homeless people who had set up camp. They remained there for the duration of the stay, but never bothered anyone really. I didn't see the neighbors often - the neighborhood is very quiet - but when I did they were very pleasant.

All in all, the stay worked out and it's lovely having a garden to relax in.
