I lived at the Georgia Ave house for the month of October 2014.

John was a nice guy, but I felt like he gave me the worst room in the house. Oh by the way, I should mention that there are 16 other rooms. That is right, approximately 17 people live in this place at any one time. The place has six bathrooms. These bathrooms are dirty and constructed in the strangest manner I have ever seen. Most often times, the sink is in the shower. When sitting on the toilet, one's knees will invariably hit the wall. On the first floor there is a toilet where the water tank is actually inside the wall. One must reach inside the wall to flush the toilet. The place is akin to a frat house.

Supposedly, there was a woman who cleaned the bathrooms on a regular basis. My housemates confirmed that they had seen a woman clean the bathrooms before. Even still, I hated the showers there. They looked dirty and there were some bugs crawling around in the showers. I am really surprised that I did not get some infection or disease from taking a shower there.

But for all that, the price is low and there are TVs in every room. The internet connection was horrible when I first arrived. But shortly thereafter, the connection was back up and running and worked well throughout my stay there. The location is hard to beat as there is a Safeway just two blocks away and the train station is literally like a 20 second walk from the front door.

But it can be very difficult to get a good nights rest at this place as it is right on a busy street. I slept with ear plugs in every night.

Overall, one gets the feeling that this house was divided up into the smallest rooms possible so that profit could be maximized. I do not know for sure, but I got the feeling that if an inspector from the city walked into that house, they would have a field day writing infractions concerning construction violations.

The other 16 guests that stayed there while I lived there seemed to all be very nice. The overwhelming majority of the occupants when I stayed there, where male. Hence the frat house feel.
