Curtis' home is right in the middle of a hip neighborhood and a quiet, hospitable sanctuary. Located very close to the highway and easy to get to. However, it is on a quiet, low traffic street and inside the apartment (which is on a lower level), it is very quiet. I easily found street parking right by his house. It is an older home, so don't expect everything to be just perfect The walls to the outside are thick and you don't hear a thing. We enjoyed a good night sleep in absolute quiet. Curtis is very hospitable and an inspiring conversation pal.
