I was able to check in on my own late in the evening with no problems. Shared bathroom but never ran into any overlaps with other guests. Can't describe my love enough for the books available in the room. Super clean, and loved the cable flat screen tv in the room. Also the coffee/tea/snacks island in the kitchen was amazing. Complete with yummy treats from traderjoes. My only gripe was that the upstairs neighbors were loud on a Sunday night at 3am. The hosts did include plenty of earplugs though. Would def stay here again.
