Lala was great! She wasn't around very much which almost made it seem like you had the place to yourself but she was always easy to reach and even sent me a text about a festival that was happening in the area. The place was really nice you get pretty much free reign of the entire second floor. The bed was huge and so comfortable and I had fresh towels waiting when I arrived. Right outside the bedroom was the bathroom and there were toiletries and things there should I need them. She also had a mini fridge that came in handy in the laundry room next door. At the other end of the hall was an entertainment room that I was allowed to use with a comfy couch and huge smart tv. Lalas place was a 5 minute walk to my sisters dorm on Howard's campus and the neighborhood is very quiet. You can easily get an Uber as well from her place to practically anywhere. The metro was about a 15-20 minute walk but there's a lot to see in between so it didn't feel like a long walk. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there and whenever I come back to visit I hope to stay there again!
