Good location, center of city. If you are apprehensive of "red-light" areas, perhaps better to avoid. But I never felt unsafe, although perhaps best to be cautious at night.
One of the house rules that was repeated by the host was not to smoke. As a non-smoker, this was not applicable for my stay. However, upon inspection of the balcony, I found an ashtray (I sent a photo to host), which was ironic since host repeatedly sent messages not to smoke. Perhaps a past guest left it? I communicated to host that it did not bother me that there was an ashtray on the balcony but host reacted with sudden unknown urgency to visit the place, but AT NIGHT. I found this totally inappropriate, and proposed on 2 occasions that host could pass by in the morning. Not understanding why host wanted so urgently to pass by AT NIGHT, simply because I informed of an ashtray on the balcony, I inquired with host. Host could easily pass by when I checked out, and I did not understand why an ashtray on the balcony is considered by host as urgent. As well, I found that the door of the closet was broken and the door was left on the wall of the closet. I communicated to host upon entry to the place (with a photo). This should have been either fixed or communicated by host prior to my stay. In terms of the behaviour in which the host communicated for these 2 things, I was not very comfortable or very happy.
