Both Anne and her roommate Anna were friendly and would sometimes come and talk with me while I fooled around in the kitchen or ate a meal. So it was much more pleasant than staying at a motel. Also I like the house. You do share a bathroom, so if you see anyone around, you might ask if you'll be in there a while. In the morning, one of them would get up and make good strong coffee for me (and talk for a while, if I was sociable). I worked from the internet a couple of days I was there. That went fine. I took buses for a couple of days while I was there. There are 3 bus lines within two blocks, so you can ask Google which one and likely will find you need to hustle if you want to catch the next one.
