The host was nice, and the room was as described (and pictured). The location was fantastic, just 2 blocks from the UW campus, and right in the middle of a lot of restaurants and things to do. The perfect place if you are visiting the university, like I was doing. It is a very simple room, but I didn't need much, so it was great. Very clean. 2 downsides, though. The first problem was that the room is connected to the adjacent room by a door, and has a opening of about 1/2 in below it. That means that sounds travel very easily between the 2 rooms, which can be annoying for you and your neighbor. The second problem is that this is a first floor room with some traffic on the street - your window opens right to the people walking by, so if you like privacy, you will have to keep the windows always shut, which is unfortunate.
