Even though Erik was not in town, he still communicated w me through text. We had a car towing a 5x8 trailer, and not able to detach the trailer from our car...so Erik's mom cleared out their garage for us just in case we needed it. Moreover, Erik called the alderman office to make sure we won't get tickets by parking on the street in the neighborhood. I appreciated his effort and patients and impressed by his personality. In general, his house was a very convenient and safe place to live! And Erik is a very dependable and kind host!
