I had a decent one-night stay at Linda's apartment.
The pros:
- Great location, easy walking distance to everything. (Definitely good value for this location.)
- Good communication. Linda was super friendly and offered flexible timing for check-in.
- Apartment has all the necessities, fairly new furniture and a comfy bed.
The cons:
- The bathroom was a bit grimy - since I was only there one night, I just opted not to shower.
- The apartment is more worn down that the pictures suggest. One of the living room windows was broken and held together with tape. The blinds in the bedroom were damaged - one wouldn't close fully.
- I have a concern about the security of the key exchange process, which I shared privately with the host, but suffice it to say I felt a bit nervous as a solo female traveler.
