We had a great stay at Alan’s house while our house nearby was being renovated. The house was very clean when we arrived, and had most things that we needed for a 3-week stay. For the few items that we needed and couldn’t find, we texted Alan, and he was very responsive. Either he told us where to find it, or he purchased and delivered it to us. Having Hillsdale mall nearby is also very helpful, for going out to dinner, charging my electric car, or running errands.
The only thing that was a mild annoyance (not Alan’s fault) is that there seems to be a culture of drag-racing in the Hillsdale Mall parking garage. Some Friday and Saturday nights we could hear tires squealing and engines revving. Fortunately, our toddler was still able to sleep through it.
Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay. Thanks Alan!
