I never actually met the hosts but it did say in the reservation that it was all self check in, which was super easy. Location was fantastic, everything was walking distance. Shopping for food and anything else is just right around the corner. Internet was fast. One of the main reasons I chose this place was because it was on a walking street. I figured it won't be loud at night... unfortunately it was really loud. There are restaurants right under the window and the garbage trucks in the morning woke me up every day. The bathroom is a bit small and could use an update but there was always hot water and good pressure as well. The kitchen was well equipped. The internet was fast , I could easily watch Netflix. There is no elevator in the building and the staircase is narrow. I had no problem with my luggage but my mom definitely would have struggled quite a bit if I wasn't there.
Overall I would recommend this place for sure.... just bring ear plugs :-)
