The room is actually a lot bigger than the pictures show you. I had two suitcases laid out on one of walls and still plenty of room to walk about. It's a 10-15 minute walk to the subway. Supermarkets are 5 mins away. Eugenia gave great advice on where to go when I visited certain areas making the most of the time I had. Also very supportive when I came down with the flu. A very pleasant stay. Oh and 4 great little furry hosts as well...
