If you simply need a place to sleep, then this a good choice, especially if you need to be near the convention center as I did. The host is very responsive, although I never got to meet him in person. I was also able to come in late at night with no problems.

I did have some issues with my stay, beginning with the fact that there's no real door to the room; just a torn plastic folding screen. Given that there didn't seem to be a female roommate present as mentioned in the listing, being a female guest in an all male house was a little uncomfortable and having no door wasn't a help. This was exacerbated by the fact that there was someone actually sleeping in the living room during my stay. While I was invited to make myself at home, this was was difficult when I'd get in and want to relax but was restricted to the little room.

Albert did communicate with me during my stay, but I was unable to respond since my phone doesn't like Airbnb's mobile site. I'm not sure if there would have been anything that could have been done to help anyway.

In all, it's not a bad basic place to stay and I'd recommend it for that. Fortunately, I was so busy during my stay that the problems weren't overwhelming.
