While Alex was a wonderful host, we did not have a great time as expected. We didn't feel safe in the structure of this house. The upstairs neighbors' activities made the thin walls of our room and bed to shake, and we thought the living room ceiling could just fall at any moment. We stayed in October and expected more than just thin bed sheets to keep us warm. It was cold! Coming from NYC, walking to the location was okay. Just be aware of your surroundings.
