A decent place in a good area, worth staying if you can get it for a low price. Monica is a good host. For a basement, you can keep the place nice and warm with the large space heater they have provided. The house transmits sound pretty well and none of the windows have blackout curtains so if you want to sleep in this is the wrong place. I am 5'9 and hit my head on the roof a few times: the ceilings are low. The shower is nice and modern but isn't well designed, water will leak out after each shower and there isn't really anywhere to dry out the mat. I would happily stay again if I could grab it for a low price, but good to know what you are getting into.
