Dear sir or madam I am living in a cottage near Boston University. I am the only one in
this
house because my parents went on holiday and they will come back home next year. So I have decided to request you a student. My house's facilities are it is quite an area, in the house has good quality Wi-Fi and we use kitchen, bathroom, and living room together. And the home is near to the train station, if he wants to go somewhere it is easy for him. I don't ask him for much money, just enough for my daily needs. In student's room has a laptop, a desk for studying, a shelf for clothes, a bed and his own toilet. I think these features are good for students. Yours sincerely Yusufbek
