We've stayed with Gen for two months and we had a very good experience. Thank you for the delicious home-cooked meals!
There were some noisy dogs in the room upstairs, although Gen told us they where small dogs sometimes it sounded like a horse race was going on. Probably because the building has old wood floors and we are used to live in full concrete buildings.
The window faces to an alley with a strong white led light turned on 24/7, so you don't get natural lighting but it also prevent a lot of the street noise to come in.
The neighborhood and the neighbors are mostly centro american and usually very friendly. It's right next to Broadway so it's also safe any time.
