Let me say first that the place was very clean, lots of fun, and walking distance to everything imaginable including the Safeway grocery store. This stay really helped me recapture the feeling of being a college student. The ikea furnishings, small towels, thin mattress low to the ground, outdated electronics, and poor lighting all contributed to this nostalgia. The work area is uncomfortable and unlit, the desk is so small a laptop barely fits on it. Lighting in the kitchen is also so poor that with everything switched on, I had to rotate the coffee maker toward the undercabinet lights to read the buttons. Check-in is about as good is it can be, the building setup requires a long walk and some stairs. Not bad at all if you have a car or someone to watch your bags while you retrieve the key. A little more difficult solo and on foot. I'm not trying to dissuade anyone, the hosts were responsive and helpful, and if you know what to expect, you'll have a great time.
