The communication and attentiveness of the host was great, and the place was in a quiet area and lots of conveniences near by plus close to two metro stops. However, there's lots of issues with this place (bravo to the photographer for making this place look awesome). First off, there's lots of "extra" furniture in the place that isn't really usable, there's a bunch of barstools located in the hallway that just makes the hallway cramped, the only use for those stools would be if you were having a party and people needed somewhere to sit, which is against the rules (shrug). There's a chest of drawers in one of the bedrooms with a nightstand in front of it making it fairly useless. One of the water heaters is flaky and stops working unless you manually reset it (which didn't always work). The sinks and showers didn't drain well and so made a mess the first couple of times taking a shower (can't have the water on full). Can't use the toaster, it causes the entire electrical circuit to trip (yes the entire place goes out). There's plenty of dishes to serve a meal, but no real tools to prep a meal (only one salad bowl and no prep bowls or baking trays). Non-stick pans but metal utensils, and only one, yes one, dish towel and no oven mitts. So outside of something really basic, the kitchen isn't that usable (especially for a long stay). Biggest issue is the drafty front door and how cold the place was. The main room has no heat source! Personally I would not stay here again.
