Alison's home was selected as a last minute sub for another host who canceled so I had to find something fast. Reviews said it was a quiet location and I even asked Alison about the noise level to confirm. Aside from a periodic siren (as one would expect in the city) she said it was quiet. She did not mention that the metro is a block away and that the tiny window in the tiny room has gaps where it meets the AC unit, therefore allowing air and NOISE to come in. I don't know how this property could have reviews that said it was quiet. I did not sleep at all due to the noise level from the metro. Residents and Alison are quiet but I would not rate it quiet location because of the metro. Remember "cozy" means tiny, and that means everything, including the bed. I'm 5'9", not really that tall, but the bed has a foot board which prevents anyone over 5'6" from fully laying down. I had to lay diagonally. The bed mattress is old and uncomfortable. The room has pealing wall paper coming down from the ceiling, the doors have major gaps, curtains hang at an angle, the space is dark, minimal and overall the entire apartment has sloppy construction. Everything seemed like it was built on a slant. Alison was great in communication prior for entry purposes via text but once I was in her home, I saw her for 30 seconds for when I asked for an extension cord and less than 5 when I departed. She stayed in her room the entire time I was there. The unit is on the 3rd floor, parking is on the street but not between 4-7. I parked a block away. This area had a lot of trash (out of her control) and overall the experience was sad. To be fair, however, Alison keeps the place tidy and the bathroom was spotless and I felt safe. I could tell she made an effort. Maybe if I were 30 years younger it would have worked, but it wasn't for me.
