My time here felt like living with a relative rather than just renting a room. Brendan was kind enough to help me carry my boxes while moving in and out. He asked me daily how my day was and how I slept and what I have explored so far in SD and kept me company while i made dinner at night. My room was clean and spacious and warm thanks to the space heater Brendan provided. There was enough storage in the room for my things (half a closet and large cupboards and spacious sink area). Mostly I prefered to drive rather than walk but the place was close to many cafes, restaurants and grocery stores. It's 10 mins drive away from Lake Murray park which I enjoyed going there for daily walks. It might be tricky to find the entrance to the apartment complex when you first arrive so go slow and look for the sign before the traffic lights. Since it's an apartment building you need to be mindful of noise and can hear neighbors occasionally but it's a quiet place in general. There were enough cups, plates, silverware, pots and pans to use in the kitchen. There was a dishwasher but since it needed to be filled fully to be used I prefered to separate my plates and washed them by hand. I jad my own side of the fridge to use so I was able to shop groceries weekly. We had a problem with the internet on the first night but then figured out it was because of another space heater and fixed that quickly. Luckily the circuit box was in my room so it was easy to access it when needed but that meant not locking my door when i leave but it is a safe place so it worked out fine in the end. Last but not least, I loved that I had an assigned parking spot. I loved that I had access to the balcony from my room. Oh also the bed was so soft like a water bed. I slept comfortably.
