Nia was very friendly when we arrived and even spontaneously gave us a ride to an electrical store to buy a Euro->US power adaptor, which we forgot at home. So she is a nice host as far as we can tell.
BUT there is one major disadvantage to the room itself, and honestly, we wonder how it comes that this isn't mentioned anywhere, as it is the main thing you experience when you are in the room:
It is in-cre-di-bly LOUD! It is only 4 m away from a metro line 7 highline station, the windows practcally do not exclude any noise, and metro trains are arriving and leaving there every 3 minutes or so.
We know that this is an inexpensive accommodation offer, and that you can not expect miracles for $50 per night.
But when you can't even sleep in a room, and this was the main reason you booked it for, it is worthless.
Another minor disadvantage is the bathroom, which is quite some steps away from the room, smells moldy and is shared with god knows how many other people in the house.
To make it short, although the room is cheap and the host is friendly, we can't really recommend it.
