Totally as expected! Great location, easy train access, easy check-in, and super communicative host. Room is no frills but bed is comfortable and internet is good. I am a low-maintenance person and didn't care, but some days it did feel like people were in the kitchen/common space nonstop (even late at night talking on the phone) so if you're a light sleeper this is something to be aware of. I'm sure noise level definitely varies depending on who the other guests are. I would definitely stay here again based on the value.
