I really enjoyed my stay at the loft. The modern appliances and features made the place seem more like an oasis than a loft. The neighbers were chill most of the time and spoke with me a few time, especially asking if I could get some oranges for them. I met the dogs the first day, but not the following days. i was looking forward to petting them. Not knowing the area well, I thought that it looked rough at first, but once you walk a block away, it changes pretty quickly and you are surrounded by mansions and flora and fauna and street cars. The area grew on me realyl quickly and I felt like I was home the next day. I was really surprised at the lost cost of using uber in the area; 5 dollars one night to the quarter from the loft. I saw Michael leaving his house but did not have any face-to-face interaction with him during my stay. The spiral staircase is tight so just be forewarned. It adds charm and whimsy to your stay in the south.
