Michael's place is conveniently close to the freeway and the airport, but not close enough you hear any noise from either. He is a nice and quiet man with a little dog and he keeps a tidy house. There's some fun music instruments in the living room. The front of the house is fenced off and the fence is lined with a lot of shrubs and wild foliage. It might seem overgrown, however there is a beautiful large (tall) Japanese (?) maple tree in the front yard. Inside, our room was pretty quiet and the bed was very comfortable. The room and bathroom could use a little extra cleaning on the walls and of the spider webs. An added touch is he leaves a bottle of tap water and two glasses by the bed. That was appreciated! There's a nice desk in the room and tv, although I never turned it on. Also, you can use the closet with several hangars provided and extra blankets are there too.
