This space was part of the owner's house - which I had not expected. It was advertised as whole house/app. I suspect I then misread further information and assumed we would have a self-contained apartment within the house but we had pass through the owner's space to get to our area. This was disconcerting for me. Having said that - Jason was an excellent host and very welcoming. His communication was very good. The area we occupied was spotless. So - I would recommend highly if you feel comfortable being in someone else's house.
