Gloria’s home is ideal for visitors traveling light looking to explore the city. The room is pretty much only big enough for one person, though theoretically two could fit on the twin mattress. I managed to work at the desk where she provided a USB hub for charging which was nice.
My main concern is that no key was provided for when you leave the home. The room can be secured when inside, and she did have a small lock box available, but otherwise you have to trust that the rest of your things will remain untouched. Since I had a work laptop with me, I could not risk this and found other arrangements for my things.
Other than this inconvenience, Gloria was clear and informative about accessing the space. If you have questions, she will respond promptly.
In the end, the value of just a roof over your head in a convenient place was worth it. If you’re looking to save money and travel light, check it out.
