I had a great time and Mike was a very generous host. Thank you, Mike! When I arrived, it was already dark so I was a bit nervous since I saw few homeless people hanging around but Mike was standing right in front of the building to greet me so I felt safe. People in front of the building, chilling w their buddies won't bother you so no worries. I don't recommend going out alone at night. If you do, just know your surroundings. What do you expect? It's common thing you'll see anywhere in middle of downtowns. I highly recommend it to anyone who is traveling by their selves or as a couple who don't mind sharing the space. Public transportation is AWESOME! I don't think it could beat any other place with this price and convenience to everywhere! Miso soup and rice is served in the morning. Wow! What more can I ask?
