Overall this location is clean, comfortable, and safe. A good value.
The host is very responsive and went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable, including an early check-in, and great recommendations of local shopping, food, and drink.
Space is just right for two or four adults who don’t mind sharing one bathroom. If using the space just to sleep, or traveling on the cheap, this is a good home base (with room for one or two kids on a couch or futon). If you’re looking for hotel quality comfort and space, you might select a different property.
There is a train track nearby, but it was not a significant intrusion. The train whistles can be loud, but the house doesn’t sit right along the track. However, if you are a light sleeper, and you know trains wake you, you might be more comfortable at another property farther away from the track. If you’re used to a little white-noise every once in a while, don’t worry about the fast-passing trains.
Two notes on creature comforts. The bed pillows need replaced/upgraded. Very thin. Very cheap. If you know you rely on a decent pillow for a good night’s sleep, plan to bring one along.
The bathroom towels are better than any Airbnb or hotel where I stayed previously.
I would rent this property again. Well done, Omar!
