We stayed at Valerie's place for one night while going to an event in Berkeley. Valerie clearly communicated the check-in/out process and how to access the room. The room was clean, had a comfortable bed, nice shower, and sizeable yard. The yard is adjacent to a busy street so it's a bit loud but not that noticeable inside when the windows are closed. The parking location was a bit strange but seemed safe enough. My partner and I, however, found it quite uncomfortable that the room was not able to be locked from the outside while we were away. This made our belongings accessible to the residents of the rest of the apartment while we were gone. While there was no incident that occurred, it would have made us feel much better if we had a private key or code to the room and make sure we can lock it.
