Figen’s house is beautiful, comfortable, and very clean — even her outdoor garbage can smells like cinnamon lol — and it’s located in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Having a private bathroom (with a bidet!) in the hall was great, and every possible necessity was available, and the provided toiletries were above-average (Olay, Pantene, etc.). The bed was firm but decently comfortable. The room doesn’t have a mirror or wastebasket, though the bathroom does have both. Minor inconvenience. The bedroom door doesn’t lock from the outside, so you can’t lock it while you’re away. They were somewhat unreasonably strict on power consumption — for example, keeping the door closed of course means the room gets really hot and stuffy (I’m talking chocolate-melting hot), and on rainy days when I couldn’t crack the window, I’d leave my ceiling fan on (light off) when I was away so I wouldn’t come back to a sauna, and once or twice my room was entered and the fan turned off; and after I’d get a shower, I’d leave the door open and the fan on (light off) to cool it down, and a couple times the fan was turned off before the mirror was even completely unfogged. They did keep the thermostat at a reasonable temperature though, and always asked for my input when adjusting it, which I appreciated.
I stayed for a month and would absolutely stay again, but only for a week or so next time; this room is not ideal for a longer stay — the bed takes up most of the room and there is no storage space (drawers, cabinets, etc.) aside from a few narrow shelves in the back of the closet, and that combination left me with little-to-no walking space (i.e., even a single suitcase at the foot of the bed is an obstacle).
