Great, accessible location and a helpful, friendly host! I stayed at Herman's house for 3 days and was travelling alone. Extremely happy to have landed on that doorstep! The neighborhood felt safe. The room and house were exactly as described: spacious, clean and luminous; peaceful space to come "home" to after a long day; comfy bed and great water pressure for the shower (I notice these things); easy access to bus and metro lines for a quick ride to the city core or other places of interest; cheap shopping right around the corner for groceries; and most importantly, Herman is engaging (but unobtrusive), full of great information and easygoing.
Would definitely recommend it!
