Melissa was a very responsive and helpful host. I would recommend her!

However, I feel that the pictures of the apartment are a bit misleading (the outside seating area is a shared space accessible from the main hall and is not part of the apartment) and the apartment is much darker than it appears in the photos. Those details aside, it is certainly livable and for the current price of $80, this is a good deal, but the building in particular is not as well kept as I anticipated. I think there are some very minor things that could be improved to make this apartment more comfortable and inviting. But there was certainly nothing wrong with our stay - and Melissa as a host and the location were both great!
