The room is as pictured - clean, spacious, and comfortable with a locking door, a water bottle, and two apples. The living room, kitchen, two bathrooms, and patio are shared with Akiko, her puppy, and about five other people. I would not plan on doing much cooking because there was very little available counter space. The dishwasher is also broken. Akiko makes coffee for everyone in the mornings, which I appreciated! One out of the two bathrooms has a door that locks. You have to go through Akiko’s bedroom to get to the patio, but she does not seem to mind. Her puppy is very cute. If you are bringing your dog, just make sure they are okay with that puppy style of play. The house is in a quiet neighborhood, a 10-15 minute walk from the 17th street metro station. Parking in the driveway was helpful. Akiko was also flexible with check-in.
