Can is a nice guy. Most importantly, he doesn’t bother his guests at all and easily goes to communication and compromises.
Initially, my room wasn’t perfect but he let me borrow some furniture from the rest of the house, installed door lock and even gave permission to change wall colors if I would stay for a long term.
The flat is designed perfectly for introverts: it has two bedrooms located far away from each other with three common rooms between them. So, if you don’t mind narrow long hall on the way to your room - it’s a perfect choice. Location is also nice, during my stay, the apartment was located on one of the most Christmas decorated streets. Sea shore is 12 minutes away, right in the building there are Italian restaurant, great burger place and a vintage shop, 5 minutes away from supermarkets.
But! The place has disadvantages too (location, host and value makes renting it worth it anyway)
• Bath/shower is tiny
• Kitchen had mold when I came but Can and his mom changed the furniture
• No living room - most probably you will eat in your own room and won’t be able to cook with friends/family
Overall, my experience is that it’s a perfect place for solo-travelers or digital nomads who work outside most of the day and come home to relax and recharge. No one will disturb you, you got your lock on the door (from inside as well 😅), and your room window has a view of a little garden. Can also provides relatively fast internet, so you are free to focus on work and create!
P.S. the host is into music recording so the vibe of the house in general is “creative mess and inspiration” 👏🎶
