Alex is a great host and his place is squeaky clean and very well located. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a functional space for a few days. However, the apartment could be much improved with a few updates. It's very outdated and feels more like an office than a home. Warmer lights, real curtains (not office blinds) and a rug would make a big difference. Moreover, the windows are old and the street noise is very audible.
