Xander's place was great. The room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfy, the wifi was great, and there was really safe and free parking. I wasn't able to spend much time with the people living in the house but they were all very friendly, helpful, and chill. The bathroom wasn't the best, but its still better than what you find in most hostels. If you're looking for hotel quality then maybe this isn't the best.. but if you're looking to live in a real house, or for an alternative to hostels in the area it is really wonderful. As a comparison a hostel I stayed at nearby cost about $50 (parking alone was $20 a night in an unsecured lot).
