Irvin himself was very personable to be around. The private room we rented was very clean and had nice little touches (candies, glasses, fridge, matching decor, hygiene ). It was the fact that the rest of the apartment (that you had to walk thru en route to room) that was a concern. To say it was a disaster,would be an understatement. There was a narrow path thru the living room to get to stairs which was filled with dirty dishes, stacks and stacks of papers and junk littered on every table in sight. I was shocked, as we're hosts too and I would neverleave my place like that. Confusing, as his reviews are stellar. I had to ask myself, "how can anyone just overlook this pigsty?"
Like I said, he's very personable but it was just uncomfortable to have to keep walking thru the huge mess every time we had to get to room.
