This place is an affordable, conveniently located spot. I never met Kirstie in person, but she was clear and communicative about the necessities (check in, getting keys, etc.). Because I never met Kirstie in person, I wouldn't recommend this for someone who is looking to their host for travel tips, chats about the local area, etc. It's a very convenient walk to public transportation and close to Prospect Park where I visited. The bathroom did have hair in the tub and sink, but I avoided most discomfort about cleanliness by wearing my flip flops while showering.
