Great experience overall! Mary is kind, responds to questions very quickly and willing to help out where she can - a welcoming aspect especially when you are from out of town.
The shared room was pretty small - two twin beds but if you are just there to sleep in the room, then it's fine; there is the kitchen and the living room available to be in as well. There was someone of a different gender staying in the other bed in the room, so she put up a divider for better privacy. I enjoyed meeting the other tenants. The blue line train stop was about a 12-15 minute walk from her house, and I felt safe walking it during the day and at night.
