John's place is exactly what you expect and pay for, a great stay for those on a budget. A private room with accessible kitchen and bathroom (although his rules about cooking are extremely unclear). The room came with one towel and one blanket - I saw reviews about the room being cold so I messaged prior to my stay to ask for more blankets. I was denied but assured the room would be warm and it certainly was. The location is great, a 10 minute walk from the subway. Although I am convinced I saw an animal in the kitchen one night - another guest had left out food.
