I stayed here for three weeks in May 2017. Philips' place is tiny but what you lack in square footage, you make up for in terms of location. The place is right in the middle of Shida night market and not far from Yongkang Street, which is great if you are a foodie. In spite of all of the hubbub outside, soundproofed windows make the place very quiet even on a busy night. The neighbors in the building are a mix of locals and foreigners, who you will meet taking out trash in the evenings at the designated times. The lofted space was fine for me but it may be tricky if you are tall and the stairs will definitely require some care to navigate in case you are clumsy. The bed is a minimalist futon, definitely meant for back sleepers. Philips is very attentive, communicating thoroughly and checking in regularly. Overall, I had a fine stay.
