The location was great - within 10min walking distance to the metro and 5mins to the nearest bus stop. As per Kristen's description, in the summer months, expect flies and bugs and you do hear every footstep and chair sliding. While most nights were quiet, we were woken up on one of the night's stay at 12AM until 2AM due to a lot noise from above. Colin (I think) caught us the next day to apologise and mentioned that he had come back from a trip but some advance warning would have been nice. He did mention we could have texted to let him know, which was appreciated.
Other than the noise snafu, the place was clean and cool during our summer stay. Bed was comfortable which was a plus. Thanks for housing us.
