This unit is located in a crowded neighborhood and near the fire station so expect lots of human noise and fire engine siren at all times. If you don't mind the noise then this is ideal since it is in close walking distances to different bus lines and metro. Since buses are free of charge during this Covid time and the buses run frequently, this location is ideal for independent travelers. If you don't mind stairs and have small luggage then this is the place for you. There are four high steps at the entrance before you get through the gate then you have to climb a set of stairs about 20 steps of one person width before you reach the dwelling place. You have to be creative if you want to cook your meals often since the kitchen supplies is very basic and limited like there are only 4 plates, 4 bowls, 4 steak knives but no kitchen knives, no serving plates, no caserole dishes, and pots/pans without lids. More lighting fixtures and brighter light bulbs would lighten up the space. Initially I felt uneasy about the crowded neighborhood but I got used to it and felt safe in the end. I had pleasant exchanges with the host. I'd stay there again if the price is competitive.
