With work out of the way, cook your favorite food in the fully equipped kitchen, then relax in your shared living area and watch cable TV with your roommates. If you’re not in the mood to cook, meet friends at nearby Lasyone’s Meat Pie Restaurant to sample one of the signature meat pies with red beans and rice.
It’s easy to manage your money because utilities are included in your rent, and there’s a card-operated laundry where you can keep you clothes clean.
