The space is as described -- not a private room, but an alcove with curtains partitioning it from the common area. There was quite a bit of noise with just one other party in a room; I'm glad it wasn't a full house! (There would also have been a lot of competition for the two bathrooms in that case. . . .) But the alcove is a good place to stay if on a budget.
Things were generally clean, and there is a good-sized, well-equipped kitchen space. I had to hunt to find a bath towel; I did find just one, in a linen closet by the far bathroom.
Park in front of the house if you can. The parking lot is about two and a half not-so-short blocks away, and is a small abandoned-looking lot that had me feel a little leery; but my car turned out to be fine overnight.
