This is a clean, comfortable space with a nice king-sized bed. Once you accept that access is via the shared basement, it would be a good value. While the host was great on communication, there are enough small problems that I needed to give this a lower rating. 1) There is no smoke detector in the rental unit. 2) Surprisingly, though there is a lot of room, there is no table and chairs. When I had my yogurt and tea in the morning (electric kettle and mini-fridge were fine) the choices were to eat standing up or sit on the bed. 3) The kitchenette is also surprisingly undersupplied. Two small plates, one bowl, two teaspoons, 1 knife. No forks, sharp knife, cutting board, The hosts were good about communicating by email, and were prompt about providing a few small items like drinking glasses when I asked. I think they have really tried to fix up this space. With a little more attention, I think it would deserve a higher rating in the future. I would not rule out reading future reviews considering a future stay. The space was warm (a good space heater) and clean.
