I stayed at Daniel's place for one month as a temporary short term housing option. I found it to be exactly as described, it had all essentials I needed for cooking, etc, and is a 5 minute walk from an excellent Whole Foods. I think it is a very efficient use of the basement studio's space. Some other reviewers had issues with upstairs noise; I am exquisitely sensitive to noise and need to wake up at 5am most days of the week, I do use a white noise machine for sleep, and literally did not have a single issue the entire month's stay. I highly recommend this space.
