The host was very communicative via emails, and very helpful to let us book last minute. We appreciated the ease of access and getting to come earlier than the posted check-in time, very helpful for us since we were tired from traveling. Either way, the host offered to provide access to drop off our luggage-that's nice. The space was not exactly as photographed. It is the same room, but decor has changed since the photos and looks less "fresh and modern" and more "obscure and moody artist's bedroom." The apartment overlooks a beautiful street. This is a space with more of a "roommates" vibe than a home vibe, just fyi for future guests. We got to meet one of the roommates, but not the person with whom all the communications took place (as was communicated with me as a possibility via an email upon booking). Great location in the city overall and definitely a budget-friendly option! Thank you!!
