There is no door or window, which makes it more of a bedstead recess. With no door, you can't really shut out noise from the living room, which makes the room not so private. One night the hosts had a party, which lasted until late and was loud in the room since it had no door. We were disappointed that the host rented out the place this night without saying anything about this at the time renting the place, since the apartment isn't that big it felt like the party was in the room. However, they were very welcoming and gave great suggestions for activities and check-in and check-out worked out very smoothly!
