Marie made me feel very welcome, she met me at the house when it was convenient for me, gave me a tour, let me know where everything was. The room is shared with another AirBnB guest (long-term) and Marie rents the upstairs room to some students. The house has everything you might need, and it in a nice neighborhood right near the red line. For me, I did have a difficult time with some of the noise. The heater is a little loud, and the upstairs students were constantly talking and making noise past midnight, the walls are very thin. It was hard to get a good night sleep. I have to say though, Marie was very good about responding to my complaints and asking the other tenants to keep it down. She did her best to make my stay comfortable, but I am a very light sleeper so it was difficult for me. I had to use ear plugs and a white noise maker on my phone, and it was hard to find quiet time to meditate or do yoga.

In short, the place is great in lots of ways, but if you're sensitive to noise, you might have a hard time.
