The place is not very private. Besides the noise of people walking around upstairs and in the next room in the basement, one of the days Pete actually showed up in the room unannounced. It turned out that one of the walls of the apartment (made of plywood) is actually a sliding door. I think he thought nobody was there and at the time he quickly disappeared back through the “wall" without saying anything until yelled at through the wall.
When later confronted they did apologise and said that they have their printer in there and the door accidentally opened - an excuse I dont think matches how far he made it into the room - but even then it is not okay to enter the room unannounced and future guests should be aware that this can happen.
The rest of the stay was alright and the hosts were very communicative - leaving notes for us most days.
