Joe was a very easy-going host who wasn't there most of the time so we had lots of privacy. The home is on a busy main street but has a mature garden so it feels restful. The room and private bathroom were clean. The room was attractive but minimally furnished so no proper bedside tables, no closet or place to put clothes or personal items. We had most of our stuff on the floor.
We had use of the kitchen but had to hunt for a knife, finally retrieving one from the dirty dishwasher. The bathroom has a small mirror but not over the sink so my husband was busy nicking himself going from sink to mirror to try to shave. With the bedroom door closed, it was hot and stuffy at night so a fan would have been nice in July.
