Okay, admittedly, we did get a little lost on the first night BUT that was only because we're not so great at following directions, ha. Salvatore was very quick to respond to any questions that we had and even tho it's a self-check in process, he still contacted us to make sure that we got in okay the first night. His home is very close to the metro station (like a 10 minute walk), and the check in process is so easy that a 5 year old could do it. This is a very safe neighborhood. We were a party of 3 females and we always felt safe walking back to the loft, even at night. The room is exactly what you see in the picture, nothing more, nothing less. For the price that you pay for, this is a pretty decent stay. I would consider staying here again in the future. :)
