Overall, the stay was decent. The room is small, of course, but was cozy and had everything needed for a short stay. However, I found it difficult to share the kitchen (which is available for guests staying a month or longer). There was not much space for food, and I think most importantly the kitchen neighbors the living room / the host's office, so it's hard not to feel like you're intruding when you are cooking and eating. At first I felt welcome, but eventually I felt like I was walking on eggshells, as the host was quick to criticize over minor things, and ultimately it seemed she just didn't want her guests in the kitchen. Overall I would recommend this for short stays that don't involve shared usage of the kitchen.
