The photos represented the room exactly! The location was great, there is a little mini-grocery store across the street where you can buy (with great prices) snacks, fruit or beverages, etc. It was a 10-minute walk to the Metro; 5 minute walk to a bus stop (there is one right in front, but I didn't take that bus line) also a bakery down the street and some smaller restaurants.
The room and entire apartment was very clean. There are 5 rooms in this unit and I believe all five were occupied during my stay. Besides the random guest in the kitchen, I barely saw any of the other guests. I also barely heard any of the other guests. There are two full bathrooms for the 5 rooms to share and I never waited to use either of them. The water pressure was great and hot water was plentiful.
The rooms each have their own hotel-type key card so its incredibly private and secure. They each have a TV and AC unit - although you are asked not to use the AC after 10PM as they are loud to the other neighbors in the building. There was a tiny window, but I like my room very dark when I sleep so that didn't bother me at all.
My only minus is the front door to the apartment. So. Incredibly. Frustrating. The key works, but you have to jiggle and jimmy your way in for it to work and the door is incredibly heavy. Its also very tall and you have to use the tiny steps to go into the building. So its awkward I came home late many times with bags (from shopping etc) and it took me a good 5 minutes to unlock and open the door.
Other than that, it was a great stay, I would totally stay here again (please fix the front door though) and the hosts were very nice and checked in (by message) to be sure all was well during my stay. Thank you so much!
