The location of the Duchess Apartment was great - relatively close to the river and parks. Unfortunately, we were disappointed in the apartment itself as it appeared unclean and neglected. The dishes were put away without being cleaned, the pots and pans were in poor repair, the linens were not fresh and clean, and the carpet is heavily stained and gritty. In addition, we were not provided toilet paper and only one towel per person for a 4 night stay. The apartment is fairly loud at night and has a smoke smell.
