Alin's place was great. I stayed one night, on short notice. Alin was very quick to respond and the self check-in option was amazing to have as it provided me with lots of flexibility, no stress. The sticky notes that are all over the place in the apartment appear to answer the immediate questions you are having at that exact moment, so they come very handy and I agree that do make the shared experience with the other guests a lot more harmoniously. I found them very entertaining too. The place is close enough to downtown if you like to walk a little, like me. At the same time, secluded enough that you can get a good night sleep. Overall, very recommendable place and host. I will come back if I am in the city again.
