If you want a reasonably priced place to stay and you'd like it to be interesting too, this is the place for you - unless you don't like to see animals around. Five curious cats, one very quiet dog and even a rather nice rabbit are all as welcoming as the host.
It's out of the city centre and in a neighborhood I really liked and has a great Metro service and a really lovely restaurant where you can get a really good pizza if you're on a budget €7.50 for my enormous one - or maybe even lobster it you want to splash out
if you don't have a problem with animals around, this is a great base for you.
