Cute EV place-- definitely stay to live like a local... But the stairs were absolutely awful (mainly because I came/went a lot and had several large bags)... so be prepared for that. Bathroom is a really awkward size/layout with the shower basically pouring into the incredibly tiny sink/mirror area. While it clearly says no TV, I was a bit disappointed there was no netflix/hbo/dvd player in the house. With everything said, Xiren was very responsive to everything and welcoming with lots of suggestions for the area. When I ran into a lost keys mishap, Xiren and her bf worked out a low-stress back up plan with me the next day-- even though they were eventually found.
