I really enjoyed my stay at Alex's place, and would stay there again! Alex was a phenomenal host, who responded quickly to issues and was willing to help out whenever I had issues / questions. The location was great, just 2-3 minutes walking to restaurants, cafes, and Davie Village, while still remaining quiet. The apartment itself was also very safe, with a fob-entry. There is also a phenomenal rooftop, with a great view of the sunset; I even saw fireworks over the bay from there! The only recommendation I have is to add room darkening shades, as the room got bright in the morning once the sun started to rise (even though there were blinds), but I am also pretty sensitive to light.
Check-in was clear and easy, although it is useful to know that the key needs to be picked up from a lockbox that is ~10 minute walk away from the apartment. This was easy to manage for me, as I just took a quick 3 minute Uber from the key pickup to the apartment!
The apartment comes with a ceiling fan, and Alex provided a standing fan as well since I requested it. In fact, he was kind enough to reimburse the fan I purchased myself (I had some issues setting up the provided fan - not Alex's fault, as the fan he provided was brand new in the box, but probably my own issues). The apartment was North(-ish) facing and got a lot of sun in the morning, so it heated up fairly quickly. With the standing fan I stayed cool enough, but it may be harder for those sensitive to heat, especially if it goes above 80 Fahrenheit.
The apartment itself was a little dated, but nice and spacious enough for one person, and came with a very useful workspace and office chair. The bed, pillows, linens, and towels were all fairly comfortable. Laundry is down the hall (reasonable, at $2.75/load), and was always empty and available. The laundry card can be easily refilled in the basement.
Overall, I would definitely recommend staying at Alex's place - he is a phenomenal host!
