The room was nice and bathroom clean. The situation was great. However the front of the house was a little bit messy. I didn't get to see Mark in person but he was available by phone. It was just really weird to enter in an empty house that you are supposed to share. I could not explain why exactly but it felt weird to be in the living room and kitchen when you don't even know if someone is in the house. I took a private room in a shared house expecting to talk to people but everybody was out or in their rooms..I guess this was meant to leave some intimacy but it was not what I expected. However if you just need a place to sleep and Don t expect much this is great. And available coffee in the morning was a must!
