The house was very quiet and cozy because it is by the lake (Chandler Pond). No noise from the street, only the sound of wind and birds' chirping. It is a good retreat for a writer like me.
Since i was the only guest in the house, i felt like Haydee's family member. She is living alone, so i talked with her a lot. Though I stayed in a room next to hers, she did not intrude my private space. She respected my privacy.
She kindly gave me useful information about the places i was looking for, so i had no problem shopping, getting to my destinations. Since the train station (green line) is very near, i had easy access to downtown area.
I recommend this house for a person who is sensitive to noise, and wants to live a quiet and seeks meditation.
