We did not get to see our actual host in person but his friend was there to welcome us. I think she was the cleaner of the house. She pretty much warned and scared us of all the rules which she said we should have gotten through email (which we didn't).
The place was nice and clean. The place is very near a water bus station which made it easy to find once we had a map. The stove and the washing machine were easy to use because instructions were laid down on how to use them properly.
