Great and personable host with good communication and recommendations for places to visit nearby. Mario cooked some dinner for me because I arrived late at night, and he made coffee in the morning. Good location near bus stops and the train station. Some basic amenities provided, like hotel size shampoo and wash, hair dryer. Bed was ok, a little firm for my taste. The window faces the street and some other house mates may be awake late, so bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper. A pretty quiet neighborhood, the only noise at night was casual conversation of people walking past the apt.
