Self check-in/check-out was a breeze. I had filtered for a room with a laptop-friendly space, so I was bit disappointed with the size of the desk and the director's chair (just not enough support for me to do any serious work). However, it turned out the table in the kitchen was big enough. The WiFi was plenty fast for me doing remote work and playing some YouTube videos.
When I saw the desk wasn't large enough, I asked Peter if I could check out after only 2 days (instead of the original 5). I was also initially disappointed I had to climb so many stairs to get to the front door.
Peter didn't complain and accommodated my request. However, after staying in the room I really like looking out onto the San Gabriel Valley at night. The bed was really super comfortable too, and especially for Monterey Park, the room was quiet. As far as the stairs, I figured I could use the exercise.
The next day, I asked Peter if he wouldn't mind extending my trip back to the original 5 days, which again he did without complaint.
Keep in mind this is a shared space. All of the other occupants were cordial and respectful. There's an onsite occupant who looks after the place. Thanks for having me, Peter.
