I had never stayed at an Airbnb that wasn't an entire home or apartment and was very nervous about staying in a room in a home - I shouldn't have worried. Shao's place was spotless, modern and had all the conveniences I could have wanted. I had plenty of privacy and there was no awkwardness at all. Shao was incredibly responsive, as well. Top shelf and amazing location. I agree with others, however - bring earplugs, the back alley can be a bit loud at times.
