Angela was super nice to let us stay at her place and even nicer to let us come and drop off our bag at 8am (we woke her up) haha! The hospitality and helpfulness was amazing. Her cat is the coolest little guy ever!
The room was more or less what it was advertised as. A small no thrills room with a window and a space heater. It does the job and it was as described. Public transit is close and there's some cool restaurants near by. The neighborhood is safe and they have protection officers who patrol the block to keep out any kind of crime.
The only recommendation I have is that if you don't enjoy the smell of smoke or arent friendly in that regard, you might want to look at other options. Otherwise, great value and hospitality and I would recommend this place to any traveler looking to save a few dollars and meet some great people and a cool cat!
