I stayed at Jim's house for 3 weeks. it's internet is good for you to work from the house. the house typically has other long term guests so you share the space with them. I ended up making a couple of friends among them. I cooked a lot in the kitchen without any trouble. it's got all the pots and pans you would need.the kitchen is stocked with a lot of complimentary items like some fruits, jam, bagel, coffee, yogurt that you can use thanks to Jim's kindness. I didn't have any issues during my stay. the cats are a welcome distraction. Castro is two blocks away and imp bus stops and train stations are four blocks away so it's a really good location. very peaceful and quiet.
Thank you Jim for our conversations and hosting me!
