Sydney is a very nice person. We have no problem to check-in at night. He welcomed us to his house and gave us tips on how to explore the city. There is no shower in the private bathroom, only bathtub. We have to go downstairs to shower, but that's not a problem. The blanket and sheet is a little dusty, and there is no heating from 10pm-5am that made us feel cold. We told him that when he asked for our feedback. He said he will make some improvement on that. He is such a great host.
