Check in was a little bit too fast and didn't give me enough information about the flat- it would have been nice to have more details about how the front door works (it's a little tricky) and any house rules regarding use of the kitchen, shower, washing machine etc. I asked Rodrigo's wife about these things on my second day and she was very lovely and helpful.
The room was a different one to the room pictured in the listing, but was larger and very clean with a comfy warm duvet and big mirrors on the wardrobe. I had my own fridge in the room, which was good but could be loud! I would recommend turning it off at night. The room could have been improved with a smaller bedside lamp, the overhead light was a little harsh.
The kitchen and bathroom facilities were good, both were very clean and the kitchen had plenty of equipment I could use. The bathroom lock was very tricky though! I only managed to get it to lock twice during my stay. This wasn't a problem for me because I was showering before most of the house were awake, but would be nice to fix.
My favourite thing about the flat was the freedom the host's relaxed attitude gave me. I was working long shifts locally and felt comfortable ordering food to the flat, having a friend visit and using the facilities at any time. I didn't get much contact with my host due to working long tiring shifts, but I could find friendly help when I wanted it.
