The host was not available throughout the duration of our stay, but their uncle, Rado, helped check us in. He also gave us lots of helpful tips on where to go and how to get there for things to see and places to eat.
The nearest public transit is less than a ten minute walk. It is a bus station.
According to Rado, the area is very safe, and nothing dangerous happened during our stay, so I have to agree.
The washing machine is a little difficult to operate, but we were glad we were able to do our laundry while we were staying here.
If you go to Berlin after this, it is best to go back to the central station. We went to the horovice station because it was closer but when the train came, we had a very difficult time finding seats, because most were already taken or reserved by people from the central station.
