This place has an excellent location. The host is very responsive. The private courtyard was not really what we expected. We were not very comfortable using it as one of the neighbors did not like the noise. Even using it quietly with no music in the middle of the day, the neighbor dropped lint and lettuce on us from his upstairs windows on two separate occasions. As an apartment dweller in a busy city myself, I can understand the neighbor’s frustration with noise. Unfortunately this neighbor’s behavior makes the patio very unpleasant for guests.
