I'm very familiar with the neighborhood so I won't blame the host for the safety issues or cleanliness of the area. However, I do recommend getting another lock for the door so the guest can feel safer; there's only one lock for the front door, no latch or anything else. Also, I did see a few roaches over the course of my stay but honestly it's to be expected with certain areas. I also noticed that the room light didn't work. Other than that, I like the cleanliness of the space and the beautiful windows.
