I gave this 2/5 stars, but for factors which are in part beyond the control of the host. The host was very responsive, caring, and helpful. However, there were three points about the location that you should be aware of if you book this place. Many won't care, but you should still know :
1- Internet : The internet here is really slow and inconsistent. If you want to just browse the internet before bed you will probably be ok, but if you are here for work (as I was) and need to video conference or just use the internet a lot, you will be in trouble. It is worth noting that this problem was experienced by 3 different people on 5 different devices at different times of day. The host switched providers in the first few days we were there but this seemed to make very little difference. The bottom floor of the house seems to just be poorly positioned in a dead spot (I noticed this making phone calls sometimes too)
2- Marijuana smoke : There is a neighbor to this unit who regularly smokes marijuana. Regardless of your personal opinion on this habit, you WILL smell it in your bedroom. Every day almost like clockwork at 9:00 AM and 11:00 PM, the bedroom you sleep in will fill with its odor. Every form of attempted mitigation from lighting candles, sealing the window with wet towels, etc... failed. Asking the neighbor to politely stop will not help, but you are welcome to try.
3- This location is very close to a homeless shelter and all the requisite baggage this carries. Several times people using the shelters' services made disparaging remarks against either myself or my girlfriend while walking past. You can avoid this shelter with an additional 2 minute walk around going west a bit.
Again, these are not the fault of the host himself (who was nothing but accommodating) but you should consider these before you travel here.
