This is a great location, like all the reviews say. It's a place you'd probably rate 2 stars if not for the location. However, I think the host could do small things to make the stay more comfortable. The mattress was awful; very uncomfortable. The sheets and bedspread were old, thin, and pilled, and the towels scratchy. It's a small investment to replace the bedding and towels often enough that they feels clean and soft, and even mattresses can be replaced at low cost. There was TONS of dust on the baseboards. I didn't think the listing made it clear that there are 3-4 other rooms in the apartment that are also rented, so it's not just you and the host. All the rooms share a hallway and common area, so you might see other travelers. This room is for able bodied people: there's a steep 8-floor stairway (no elevator), and a step into the bathroom. It's also very loud at night (but that's expected in the square). It all comes down to what you're willing to sacrifice for price and location. (The host is very friendly and helpful; I have no complaints about my interactions with him.)
