No contact with the host in person, but he did provide excellent directions to the hotel from the train station and made our arrival easy.

The listing description was very accurate. The hotel staff is very friendly and they were so helpful with getting around and recommendations for places to see/eat.

Neighborhood is just South of everything you want to see, and you can get pretty much everywhere you want on foot.

Quiet neighborhood, but close to everything if you don't mind walking. Close to the Metro.
