About the Place

As an experienced host I aim to make your comfort a priority so your visit is enjoyable. I keep my house clean, safe and comfortable so you can relax and unwind during your stay. As a guest, you can come and go as you'd please, though no outside guests are allowed.  I am happy to hang and get acquainted when schedules allow.  Otherwise we are relaxed, open-minded friendly roommates.  I won't let anyone go hungry ; coffee,tea, fruit and baked goods are always offered in the mornings (more on request) and if I cook dinner it's likely offered to be shared. I am always happy to feed people when schedules align or have a drink and chat. You'll have a private room and the rest of the house is shared.  The shared bathroom is roomy, and has a large walk in shower that offers plenty room to enjoy.

LOCATION: My house is only 6 subway stops from the Gayborhood and 3-6 stops from most of Center City destinations. It's located near Fishtown and is close walking distance to many area hotspots for drinking and eating, which I offer a printed list in the room. There's usually plenty of safe, free parking on my street, often it's easy to park across the street where you will see your car from your bedroom window.

ROOM: The guest room is the larger, front bedroom, furnished with a really comfortable bed.  It's an easy work-from-home space with a desk etc (see amenities list for room contents)  * please note, on weekdays during normal school months, mornings can sometimes include some activity out front - parents dropping off kids at the daycare center on my block. It's a city and not guaranteed perfect silence. There is a white noise machine, though.

CLOTHING OPTIONAL: I'm happy to offer a nudist, judgement-free vibe at my house if a guest indicates interest in that.  Your comfort is priority, so that is NOT something that will happen unless there is interest expressed by you. So it's up to you to let me know what you want, or at least ask about it if curious. This has no impact on me accepting booking requests. FYI, I consider myself a "top" notch host, and a home nudist and I'm always happy to join you if there's interest expressed by you.  Otherwise, it will be pretty chill and normal as any other clothed bnb as a default.

ME: I welcome questions openly about anything. Read my "profile" statement and feel free to look me through my art work, if looking for the term: "cheese portraits". If you read my profile; I'm ez to find.

 * OPTIONAL: PLEASE, if possible, I like to avoid strong perfumes and cologne and avoid wearing shoes in the house due to my allergies.
** NOTE this Fall I will be teaching Tuesdays and Thursdays  and check ins will need to be after 4pm (September 24th-Dec10th)

Had a fantastic two night stay at Mike's place. Mike was super helpful with local recommendations, and flexible with arrival/departure times despite him having full day of teaching the day I was there. Mike was also easy to talk to, and gave a lot of history about Philly which was fun.
