Best part about John's place is the location. It's on a quiet street and a very walkable distance to Central, where there are a ton of restaurants (my favorite is Life Alive). Even closer is Andala Coffee House which is open late and has amazing cakes.
The room looked exactly as described. It was simple and had a desk, nightstand and dresser. The bed was very comfortable. The A/C worked well and the hum drowned out the sounds of other guests walking through the halls and closing doors. It's an old house with wood floor so you will hear noises but that's to be expected. I actually rarely ran into anyone else there except once or twice in the evening on the way out the door. People kept to themselves so it was peaceful.
Check in was with an electronic front door lock and my bedroom had it's own lock with a key. Wifi worked well. Fridge and full shared kitchen downstairs that was clean.
Great value and location, clean and no fuss. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks John!
