The room you see is the room you will get at Richard's apartment. The place was clean. It is not a Hyatt or Hilton but you are not paying anything close to what those rooms would cost you.
Richard is an easy guy to work with. I arrive from out of county when I come to the US. my cellphone carrier failed to switch me to a plan with wifi so I was lost with no ability to get past my mobile service email. I thought my sim card had failed. Richard hung in there with me trying to communicate so all worked out in the end.
