I have mixed impressions about this place. Alex is certainly a very nice fellow, and one of the good things about his hospitality is the outstanding cleanliness with toiletries like towels, shower gel, tissue. The house is old indeed, but it has a good local atmosphere, and the room is prepared for you with fresh and fragranced sheets and cushions. for some reason I could not have a good sleep, but it can be due to my age (46) combined with the bit worn out matress.
There is a strict silence rule which is good, still I woke up every night for the noise of some stuff falling off in the corridor (probably the strong wind blowing outside). Also there was a techno party in the neighborhood on Saturday night until 2 in the morning.
Other than this, the price yplou pay provides a cheap but decent value.
Access to subway is an arm stretch away, 10 minutes from the city and most touristic spots.
