The room I was offered was indeed like the one featured. It was clean and well-stocked with essentials. Supermarket and pharmacy very nearby and all within a relatively safe and residential neighbourhood. The room was air-conditioned as well, which made for a comfortable temperature. The kitchen and toilet were all in excellent condition. I'm very impressed by the effort put in by the hosts to ensure a comfortable stay.

However, a major downside is possible noise disturbance, not only due to the fact that walls are thin, but also because the whole flat seems to resonate whenever a door is opened or closed. Due to the other tenant in the flat, I had rather disturbed sleep on my last night, as she was indeed quite loud, used the toilet and let another stranger in and out of the flat, all of it until 2:30am. What happened is of course no fault of the hosts, but the noise is indeed not a matter of convenience.

In addition, my room is situated right next to the toilet, hence was quite an inconvenience in terms of noise whenever the other tenant used the toilet.

Finally, the self check-in system is very convenient. The key to the flat is locked in a small key box placed at the main door. This key is common to all tenants, and the key box can only be opened with a 4-digit combination. Although we were told that the combination should not be shared with anyone else, this is indeed a security loophole, as any previous tenants can access the flat, until the 4-digit combination is changed.

Nevertheless, despite the downsides, I think this private room is value for money and has a very central location. I would still recommend it overall.
