First, Luigi and Lorraine made the check-in and checkout process seamless. Lorraine was easy to communicate with and was flexible/accommodating. Luigi was an amazing correspondent: giving us advice before we even arrived, being flexible with our ever-changing arrival times, meeting us at the door, and giving us local recommendations.
The place could not have been more centrally located. You step out to wonderful restaurants, music, and sites. Everything you could ever want is a short walk away.
Our less than 5-star rating, was due to a few factors: 1. There is a uniquely bad and pervasive smell in the bathroom. Something along the lines of sulfur and/or burning hair. As others noted, not sure if the source of the smell is coming from the plumbing (not due to a lack of cleaning on the host’s part), but it might be something to look into correcting as it did make the stay less pleasant. 2. The walls are very thin and sounds within the building we’re amplified making sleep difficult.
