Private room was as advertised. Great location in walking distance to a lot of restaurants. Room had a door and lock but no key to lock your stuff inside. Michael stated that the keys had been lost and that he was planning to change the locks so that it had a key. The apartment is not a high traffic area where a bunch of people come and go so we felt comfortable leaving our stuff in the room without it being locked. We had no issues. Michael does live on the property and his room was possibly next to ours? Walls are thin so it sounded like he was right next to us. We had total privacy in the room otherwise. He lets you leave your stuff if you get there before check in or have a late flight plasta checkout time which is nice.
