This place was close to my brother's house, but it was not an ideal place to stay. It was very musty and damp. The air conditioner was extremely loud and had to be turned off to talk and sleep. The upstairs guests (we were in the basement apartment) were very loud and had a party until 2 am on the first night. We tried to contact the host, but he did not answer and never returned our call. We talked to the upstairs guests, and even when they tried to be quiet, it was still very loud in the basement. Also, the upstairs guests can lock the door to the stairs, but we could not. The downstairs is accessible to the upstairs guests at all hours (and they came down three times). Also, the upstairs guests blew the fuse twice and the fuse box was above our bed. One of the times they blew the fuse, it was late at night, so they had to come down and get into the fuse box while we were in bed, which was very awkward. We would not stay here again, despite the fact that it is close to my brother's house.
