The house was in a great location, very close to all parts of the city. As other reviewers noted, the noise from the planes is very loud but it didn't bother us too much. Honestly in any area within the city itself the noise will be pretty loud.

My biggest complaint is that there are no pictures provided of the specific room that you book on the listing. Most of the rooms seemed nice enough, but when we arrived we were surprised to find ourselves in the "lavender room" which featured a rather poorly done purple paint job that darkened the room. Both desks in the room were covered in dust and so we were a bit concerned about how regularly the room is cleaned. On the wall were three very large canvases of nude men and women in shades of bright yellow and blue. While I can absolutely appreciate the paintings as works of art, the colors clashed with interior and the subject matter was not something that my husband and I were expecting to cover the entirety of the wall space in our room. Similar paintings were found in other parts of the house though they were not bothersome since I had a choice of whether or not to view them, as opposed to our bedroom. Being disappointed with the state of our room, we contacted Michael to see if we might be able to switch to one of the two other available rooms even if it cost a little bit extra. He was very polite but did not honor our wish. We understood his position and choose to store the paintings in the closet for the remainder of our stay. While on the phone with Michael, we requested that he provide pictures of the specific rooms associated with each listing he has so that future travelers would at least be aware of what they were getting. He claimed that Airbnb would not let him upload any more photos in addition to the ones taken by Airbnb's photographer - we're not sure that we buy that but it could be true.

Despite the host being easy to contact and him seeming concerned that our stay was enjoyable, we would not recommend staying here given our experience. It's not a terrible place by any means, but we feel that there are better places to stay in the city in the same price range.
