at some point, this will be a great spot but it was in a state of flux/rehab, while we visited, which the host did not report at the time of booking. the room was spacious & had windows that opened, which we appreciated. the bathroom was down two flights of stairs, which was not revealed in the listing, and the strict rules - which one had to agree to prior to arrival - about taking one's own trash out daily (down the block to dumpsters), etc. were a bit bothersome (perhaps meant for young travelers more then adults?).
the host was super communicative, friendly & helpful, especially if one needed multiple recommendations &/o suggestions about their stay/throughout their stay. i did find it irksome, however, that I received numerous requests to fill out the property review ASAP, once I left (but was still travelling/on vacation).
