The room is exactly as it is shown in the pictures. It is in the basement of the main building and it is very safe as it has 2-3 locks.Generally it is a clean apartment and has good heating system. The distance from the subway is approximately 15 min. by foot and it is a little bit tiring if you do that everyday especially when it is very cold outside. Although, there is a bus station in the same block of the apartment which takes you in about 5 min to the subway smoothly.From the subway to the city centre it takes about 20 min. maximum depending on the final destination. The neighborhood is a mixture of cultures and sometimes in the late night it may not seem so safe, but I didn't face any problem. Overall, the apartment is a good choice near the city centre but with a touch of a typical American neighborhood. Also, Caroline and her father(with whom I met for the keys) were very helpful and gave us extact instructions and I would highly recommend her as a host.
