Lien’s place is exactly as described. It’s located on the ground level, on a smaller quiet street. Communication with Lien was great and she was very accommodating to my last minute change in check-in due to train strikes.
Some things to note:
-Liens place is about a 10 minute walk from the Line 12 subway.
-the toilet is separate from the actual bathroom
-the bathroom is quite small but was fine for my size. Consider this if you require more room
-the bed was super large and comfortable!
-the bedroom is equipped with great shutters that keep the bedroom dark. It was great for the days I wanted to sleep in.
My only complaint was on my last night (a Thursday) the next door neighbors, who seemed to be in their early 20s, had an extremely loud house party that went from 10PM - 4AM. It was so loud that the walls were shaking from the music and their shouting. I asked the guests to lower the music twice, but they didn’t. I had to sleep with headphones that played white noise to be able to sleep. They also left the main door open for their guests and I had to close it twice, so this was a potential safety hazard. Of course, this is at no fault to Lien - but consider bringing earplugs if you stay here. Other than this issue, I enjoyed my stay. And I most certainly like the color green more now!
