I enjoyed my stay and appreciated the host's speedy communication. I came a few days after the earthquake, so there was some stucco and painting work in the stairwell. The halls were not cleaned so I tracked a lot of dust back into my room. The room itself was very nice and had everything I needed. You may want to check with the host regarding ongoing renovations in the building, if that is something that concerns you. It wasn't too noisy just dusty.
