John's great and it's fun to meet other travelers who are staying in other rooms of the airbnb. The couch is in a shared alcove of a hallway, separated from the hallway by a curtain, so if you need a lot of privacy a different room would be better for you. As noted, the couch is very short, less than five feet long. But it is very comfortable -- I slept very happily on it for many nights. The house is very clean and John is really great, he was very responsive and helpful whenever I needed anything or had any questions. There's a kitchen with cooking utensils which is very clean and pleasant to use. The bathrooms are also very clean.The house is in a really cute residential neighborhood and you can walk easily to restaurants.
