James was very hospitable and accommodating in letting me check-in early and allowing a couple friends to drop their bags off while waiting for their flight later that night. That said, the place itself needs a lot of work, and I am glad my stay wasn't any longer than one night. The apartment is located on a pretty street, but in a very old, run-down building that has stained carpets and a stale odor in the common areas, and an elevator that barely works (the buttons don't light up when pressed, and jerks violently when it goes up and down). I had to keep windows open to keep the apartment cool since it gets quite warm with them closed. Keeping the windows closed would also mean that the musty smell in the apartment would be worse. However, because of having to keep the windows open, the traffic noise and sirens were particularly loud, which made it difficult falling asleep. The walls in the building were also very thin, and I could hear all the comings and goings of people. The lock on the apartment door also didn't feel secure (the door to the apartment was so old and light and felt like it could have been broken down very easily), so I felt slightly unsafe staying alone that night. The interior doors were either broken or had holes in them, and the bathroom had stains on the walls and ceiling. There were half-eaten food items in the refrigerator, and the kitchen supplies (kettle, toaster, coffee pot etc) looked too unclean to use. The towels provided also had stains and an unpleasant sour-ish smell to them that I actually felt dirtier after my shower. The biggest pro about this apartment is its very convenient location to Broadway and the train station, which served my purpose for easy access to the airport the next morning.
