The place is small and Spartan, as described. The sound carries quite a bit in the apartment, but the other guests seemed to be as quiet as they could. Unfortunately, the room had patches of some kind sticky residue on the nightstand and on the floor near the baseboards with an accumulation of gnats, hair, etc in it. I messaged the host about this but received no response other than what I assume were some automated ‘check in’ messages, since my comments were never acknowledged . Aside from this issue not being resolved, the listing was accurate and a decent deal if you need a crash pad after something at Avant Gardener. You get what you pay for!
