The host is very sweet and really makes you feel welcome in his home. His apartment is quite lovely and his family is very nice. He will often ask you to sit down to dinner with the family. There is plenty of space in the room, much more than the picture suggests. I had enough space to workout and do yoga. Zen.
The only negative is the street noise. It is mainly on the weekends, and kind of kept me awake one night. I got used to it, so after the second night I was fine.
