What makes Giac a great host in my eyes is his ability to respond when it really counts and his ability to handle a snafu in a fair and considerate way. He was outside waiting for me when I arrived and carried my bags inside—I didn’t even have to ask for help. This earned him all the points. The building feels very attractive and secure with two heavy auto locking doors you pass through to get in and out. They were upgrading the video intercom system when I arrived. As Giac states in the profile, there are other rooms being rented to other guests simultaneously and you all share one bathroom. I didn’t encounter any issues with this arrangement but if you’re on a time crunch in the mornings I’d suggest you communicate with the others so you can prearrange a time to shower. I would recommend to anyone who has the strength to do the entry stairs and strength to open the large locking doors in the hallway (ps it’s possible to get locked in between the two!) The working washer/dryer in living room, the eclectic neighborhood, and the interesting host are all bonuses. All stars from me.
