What are your general comments?

"If you stay at Moving Arts B & B, Pam, the owner will take good care of you. She picked me up from the airport, dropped me off, made sure my room was nice and warm (the room I had was really spacious), and she does whatever you might need to help your interview go as well as possible. She also gave me a heads up on what to expect for the interview (most her customers are applicants to DUCOM). The B & B doesn't come with breakfast but there is a nice cafe across the street that has delicious pastries baked daily and some amazing apple juice. Ask Pam about it and she'll point it out for you." Report Response
