The host Luivob is extremely welcoming and was able to accommodate us checking in earlier, as our flight landed at 11am. She recommended a few places for us to check out to eat and it didn’t seem to be an issue with us coming and going throughout the day. Her son is also very sweet and will converse with you if you are around.
There were only a few things that i felt that impacted our stay, one was that there is also another room being rented out, which I was unaware of and I’m not sure is even mentioned in the description. With that, there is only one shared bathroom (which is located directly next to the kitchen/living room) which made it hard sometimes to have access to the bathroom, or at least some momentary privacy without someone knocking to use it next. Also since it’s shared, there were a few times I went to use the restroom and the floor was soaking wet from someone just having showered.
The room was as pictured, but the bed is very squeaky and the sheets could be updated, as they seemed worn. Room is right next to the living room/ kitchen area, so there is some noise, but not too bad. The room has a window which can be opened to let in a nice breeze.
All in all the house is very homey and welcoming. If you are looking for something close to the subways and with bodegas nearby, this is the place.
