This is, as described, a private room with an en-suite bathroom in someone's house. From the front door there is almost immediately stairs up to go to the room, so I think this is as much privacy as you can get in such a case. It's almost like a hotel room, but then a lot cheaper and no lines for checking in :-). The host was really nice and friendly. The room was clean and spatious. The small fridge was helpful, and so was the microwave. It's about 10-15 minutes walk to the nearest public transport stop (the route to which google didn't know well).
