This place was perfect for our needs. The shared kitchen worked wonderful. It is closed from 10pm to 8am. It was used after 10pm on our visit, but the people were respectful and quiet. They did what they needed and left. Realistically, I'd say the kitchen is likely used on occasion out of those hours as the schedule of some people coming and going can't abid by that time frame. Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We had a very large closet to use. The bathroom was also very large. What a nice touch supplying water bottles in the room! Yep, there's lots of stairs, but it is in the listing. Didn't find it a problem. Very responsive renter to any questions and she gave great detailed information on check-in. There is a really nice deck no furniture on it, but just a nice space to get out to. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend!
