Alex is a wonderful host who is super responsive and his home has all the amenities you could want or need. Super comfy beds and wonderful kitchen for cooking meals during this crazy time. Having a garage to park in is a real plus for many reasons, weather, convenience, safety etc. The yard is just the best if you have a dog or child, though there are dogs in neighboring yards so if you have a reactive K9 just be aware and prepared to intervene. Internet is lightening fast and while I used my own FireTV, the RokuTV they have would have been sufficient. Very nice washer and dryer for use and they supply dye free detergent if you don't have your own.
The only word of caution I have is that the area surrounding the house, a couple streets over in each direction, is slightly less than desirable. The streets abutting the home itself are fine and the folks I encountered during my stay were pleasant. However, it is not advised to go walking through the neighborhoods during the day or night, but there are no sidewalks so that shouldn't be difficult. As long as you keep the doors to the house locked and keep your vehicle locked (or in the garage) with no valuables visible you should not have any problems. Most crimes in that area are crimes of passion or opportunity. Since it is likely you are from out of town and passion is out then just don't give them the opportunity. If you warm your car up be sure to lock it, but also know that it can be stolen even if it is locked and that is the biggest crime in that area. I hate to be "that person" and say something negative about such an awesome place, but I also hate to have someones trip ruined by a thief. So don't not stay,just stay smart :)
