Charles is a very responsive and accommodating host. The area and location is nice with shopping nearby and easy access to public transport. The room share (for six) is a bit small for that number of people and their belongings. The outdoor kitchen, while semi-enclosed, is not the most convenient nor ideal, so I didn't really use it. There isn't a common area for lounging, only a table and a couple of chairs in small vestibule. The redeeming quality for this accommodation is definitely cost and location.
