I stayed with Michael for three full weeks and his home, in a way, became my home. Michael is friendly and leaves a small footprint.
The bedroom and bathroom were exactly as I expected, comfortable, and clean. I also freely used the common spaces. I frequently used the living room and even had a friend over a couple of times to watch TV. I also used the kitchen and dining room to cook and have meals every day.
The neighborhood is pretty nice. There's a small grocery store (Streets Market and Cafe) a short 2 min walk away, and a Trader Joe's 10 min away. The U metro station is also pretty close. There are lots of places to eat, Le Colombe coffee shop is a block away, and Busboys an Poets is super close. Overall location is great!
Finally, Michael has an Alexa that controls all the lights in the apartment, which is... really cool!
