The host was extra nice and let us check-in super early because our place was getting fumigated. The place was pretty clean, even though she has dogs (there were three at the time). I'm not sure if this is always the case, but she let us stay in her room which was a bit awkward (I thought it was going to be a guest room or something) while she slept on the couch the first night. There is a bit of noise from the neighbors across the way, but all in all its fine. On a hot night with the window open you're going to hear some traffic. The room size is a bit small.
