Sam is very attentive to the house. I enjoyed the cleanliness and did not find the rules hard to respect at all. I left green but made lots of lasting connections and will continue to find the right place in the industry for me. I will be back to stay again soon. The crew house does prepare you properly for life aboard.Posted on Google Salvatore IncorvaiaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The house was fantastic!
