Jean was very nice and the area is gentrifying. Short walk to the subway. Overall, felt pretty safe, but wouldn't hang around outside at night. Jean was very helpful to provide suggestions for places in the neighborhood. She worked from the kitchen table, so she was around all of the time. As a new host, I felt she was a little nervous to leave us alone in the place for very long. As we were two slightly older graduate students renting the rooms, I don't know what she thought we were going to do.

Overall I recommend the place.
