John is a very hospitable host, doing so much to make me feel welcome, like offering use of dishes in the kitchen and taking the time to chat with me when I was around in the mornings and evenings. He also helped me get accustomed to his dog, and her to me, so we could get friendly with each other. He even offered me rides to and from the nearby DART station upon my arrival and departure. The bed was very comfortable. It was great to have a pool to get cool and refreshed in the midst of hot summer days in Dallas. I was one of the first guests who stayed at his place after a pandemic-related hiatus, and he did well giving me all the information I needed for my stay upon my arrival as he was getting back into the groove of orienting guests.
