The room was very comfortable, but noise and privacy were concerns. There was oftentimes loud conversation, music, and the sound of gun shots from a video game late at night. In regards to privacy, the “private” bathroom has a sliding window/door that appears to connect to a hallway. This sliding panel is not completely opaque, and I couldn’t get it to lock. As a result, I felt unsafe.
I was also unclear about who was living in the house and who to communicate with — at one point there was a study group of young students, and at another point different people were hanging out in the living room. I was unsure whether to communicate with the host via Airbnb or an employee of the host (the individual who greeted me at check in) via WhatsApp
