As advertised, the Zak's place is quiet and near the light rail. It's also right across the street from a grocery store. Perfect for my purposes.

Zak was a gracious host, despite being busy enough that we rarely crossed paths. He picked me up twice at the light rail (0.7 mi away) -- once when my feet had given out and once when it was pouring rain.

He also keeps a nice garden and I was pleasantly surprised to find fresh flowers in the bathroom one day!

Zak has 2 other male roommates, but I really never saw them. One travels often, so I don't think he was even home. The split level house is a true bachelor pad -- complete with a built in keg fridge and original 70s kitchen & bathroom. But unlike a typical bachelor pad, it was clean!

I would stay there again.
