Loved my stay. No TV, no fancy furniture or decorations, just some collections from the world and boooks. Yes you can hear sirens and motorcycles swooping by in the night but given the location I guess it’s understandable. Besides being respectful to my personal space, Carl was responsive during my whole stay and willing to pause his work talk about his travels and introduce me some local restaurants, leaving lights on if I come back after he went to bed. Just be careful if you try to squat down and pet Riley through the door when he welcomes you, that cactus lost some thorns unfortunately:)
