Brianna communicated well and even though she said no privacy, there is a screen where she is and where the two beds are so it did feel more private. I was with two folks who were very spontaneous and Brianna luckily was very accommodating to our ever-changing "plans". Her place is a minute walking distance from the metro and in a quiet area, making it a convenient and smart choice for travelers who plan on moving around in the city. A foodie place nearby is Pye Boat Noodles, a hole-in-the-wall Thai place that's been featured a lot on the internet. I would recommend staying with her. Tampopo is her pup and was really the icing on the cake; a cute and old soul that doesn't bark, loves all the pets, and misses his owner very much when she's gone.
