This place is a solid 2.5 stars, not even close to 5. I have stayed in many hostels and AirBnB's, and I typically enjoy budget-friendly places. But, this place was absolutely not true to it's description! I absolutely would not recommend this place.
The place was not as clean as described and the photos were very deceiving. At first glance, things looked clean, but upon further inspection they were not. Minor crumbs, slight liquid stains, and grime were found throughout the common areas. Upon opening cabinets and doors, things were not in great condition (i.e. dirty rags and containers just shoved places). The furniture was cheap ikea furniture (which I have no problem with), however it was basically falling apart and full of dents/scratches/discolorations. The room was also in the basement, which felt very humid and moist.
The host did not answer any specific questions prior to the stay. He just provided me with generic paragraphs about the space, that I assume he sends to everybody.
The host advertises that the kitchen, living room, and restrooms are shared. But the rooms are private (my room did have it's own lock code). However, I had an unknown person (another guest or the host?) use a code to unlock my door and pop in. He did not say anything, just poked his head in, looked around, and left. This was the most uncomfortable and scary thing.
