Long hours, except during the summer. A nice place to hang, although it can be noisy, and the internet's been spotty of late.

Some of the best food in town for lunch and dinner! On the higher end for price in town, which isn't saying much -- you can get a great meal for under $25.
Opened in April 2018 by a local couple: a former chef at The Bellagio, and the former house manager for the very house you're staying in. :)
Bonus: The outdoor patio and floor-to-ceiling windows are great for people-watching.

Essentials
Oberlin College has an "open-campus" policy that includes the libraries. Fast internet and lots of places to work, if that's your thing. (I spend several hours a day here.)

The nearest supermarket, a longish walk from my place. Cheap, basic, well-run, and very middle-American.
