Stayed for two weeks! In order to spare everyone a very long read on how great Michael's place is, I will have to do this point form :
-PERFECT LOCATION. Walked most of the main neighborhoods from there. For further distances bus stops for any direction are nearby and the schedules are easy to follow. Get the transportation app. I found getting around from Michael's place very easy and more than convenient. There are some very cool bars, restaurants and cafés right around the corner too.
-THE STUDIO. It was all plug and play for me. Brought a laptop and plugged into his Apogee. Simple and functional. Everything sounded great for what I needed to do.
-THE SPACE. Cozy! The bed was comfortable, the place was clean. Dimmers on the lights help create a cool working space, I found it very inspiring to work and write there. The kitchen is very basic but in working order enough to cook a meal for one. It is mentioned on his page but I can confirm, this is ideally a great space for ONE person.
-THE HOST. Communications with Michael were great! Responded to any questions I had before and after my arrival very quickly. Even had a welcoming basket with a few goodies in it. Nice touch. :)
I loved everything about my stay here! The location and ease of everything just made it simple for me to enjoy and take complete advantage of the city and the studio. It was way beyond my expectations and I definitely recommend Michael's place.
