John was a great host and had a lot of great recommendations for food and music that weren’t very touristy, which is exactly what we wanted - what the locals enjoy. He’s not around much but we did run into him one early evening, and he is a very nice guy.
Even though it was very hot and humid out, the bedroom’s window air conditioner kept the room comfortable to sleep in. The mattress was comfortable too!
The location is perfect if you have a car, which we did, but Uber or Lyft wasn’t very $$ either. It’s a safe neighborhood with good food and music/bars within walking distance.
The room is in an apartment which I didn’t realize but I may have not also read the description correctly, but it was no big deal. It wasn’t the fanciest place I’ve ever been but we didn’t expect that and the photos are exactly what it looks like. The most important thing was that it was clean, had what we needed, and I have no complaints.
