“The location shines, particularly for those visiting the Baha'i Gardens, with convenient bus access. I found that its position in the German Colony places you amidst a vibrant mix of restaurants and cafes, while the hosts are commended for helpfulness. Keep in mind, though, that the building retains its historical character, including original staircases.”
