Some confusion with host at check-in, but everything worked out. Did not get the room I booked (with a private bathroom) but the host emailed me the day before telling me so (broken toilet) and offered different room with shared bathroom. I was concerned about how a shared bathroom would work, but it was not really an issue, I was just conscientious about the amount of time I spent there so as not to inconvenience others. Room itself was fine, big bed and a big fan which saved me as it was in the high 80's while I was there and sunshine cooked the room. Opened window and blew fan, helped a bit but was still hot to sleep. Quiet neighborhood, especially sleeping with open window. Good location! Near I-5, Northgate Mall, other convenient places. Nice shared spaces and a big kitchen. Soaps, shampoos, hair dryer provided. Also big lighted magnified mirror in room. Cheaper than a hotel and just what I needed for a home base. Would probably stay there again.
