I stayed at James for a little over two weeks while trying to find an apartment, having just moved into town. His place was just what I needed at an incredibly low price. The bedroom was very nice with a private entrance from the backdoor of the house, a small desk, mattress, a minibar and a microwave. He also provided a nice blanket that helped a lot during the cold nights.
James is also a really cool, easygoing guy. We ended up talking quite a bit about politics, culture, sports and life in general and he even invited me for a beer a couple of times and to watch a basketball game. Pretty solid dude. I really couldn't have picked a better place to stay.
By the way, he's also got a cute little dog named Baby. If you like dogs, you're gonna fall in love with her just like I did. She may bark sometimes but all she needs is a little attention and some belly rubs to calm down.
