Depends on your length of stay. I can't fault Derek for communication and ease. There is value, if you're looking for short term close in then this just a place offers no fuss stay at a reasonable rate.
The location suited my needs. This unit is seems to only be used for airbnb rental. Thus is lacks a feeling of warmth and comfort, homey feel. No pictures on the walls and hard and soft furnishings aren't best quality. Ceiling lights had no covers and walls needed a refresh in bedroom areas.
If you intend to cook, this unit has very little amenities. 1 med pot, 1 multi use pan, 2 cups, 2 glasses. 2 sm bowls, 2 plates. However no microwave, cutting board, mixing bowls etc. So just be mindful and look before you buy food to cook. If you don't cook, not a worry. I was concerned about the smoke detector as mentioned in the post whilst cooking. Seems all unit in the building have similar challenge. I took extra care as I opened the window and turned not the hood fan and had no issues. However, it did go off randomly 3 times during my stay; 130 and 530 AM and just whilst watching TV. I thought maybe it was cause of the heating but it was on 21/22? Made it quite unsettling.
The Bed is awful, only a bottom sheet and light cover is provided. Pillows weren't comfy. I had to pull the top cushion off the sofa to make it bearable.
It's important to leave honest reviews as it helps others make informed decisions. They help raise the bar on what people rent. I've used ABNB nearly 12 times. I've stayed in some awesome properties, had great experiences and met some gracious accommodating hosts. Every place doesn't suit every person. This unit just didn't suit my individual expectations and needs as far was cooking and comfort.
