Shera was a great host, very laid back atmosphere and check-in was very easy. Great communication before we arrived. The room was clean and comfortable, and everything was what I expected -- she's accurate in her description. Her house is right by the train which is very helpful -- the noise from the train isn't that bad, even with the windows open. The neighborhood is a little noisy and looks rough, which may turn some people off but personally I think all of that is overblown -- people all around were friendly and mind their own business. It's a great value and I very much recommend it.
