The room is exactly as you see in the pic, Dennis cleaned it up well, no dirty stuff on the bed when we arrived, you do have to live with other travelers (in different room). But they are pretty nice and quiet down round midnight, and keep everything quit e clean, the bathroom on the second floor is very spacious and quite cool with that sky window. The street parking is easy on the next street, you can park without a parking permit, but it does look a bit bleak on that street, do confirm with Dennis if he has an unexpired parking permit if you want to park right front of the place. We visited in winter, and the 15 min walk to metro wasn't bad at all, we wanted to drive every day, but the parking there is very expensive (in the city), so we would suggest if you park next to Dennis' place and just take the metro.
