This place is a great value, but you kind of get what you pay for. We'd read concerns about street noise, but that was not such a problem for us. The real problem was that the apartment is above a restaurant, which means that the kitchen-crew music starts at 9am and stops at 10pm, 7 days a week. Not a problem for us, but if you plan on napping in the bedroom mid-day, it could keep you up. The other issue is the smell. We thought the apartment smelled like we were above a donut shop, but the smell is actually from a combo of fried chicken and waffles. We hear the place is great, by the way, but couldn't bring ourselves to eat there. The other issue is the TV. We were told that the previous guest had broken the remote (so get a new one!), so we had to use an Apple TV remote to get Netflix to work, which did not work well. We could not get to a Netflix home screen, which meant we ended up watching Seinfeld for two weeks. It's not really a TV, just whatever you can find that works on Netflix. Seinfeld was fun; it could have been worse. And while the place was not dirty, it was also not super clean either. The good news was that B was very responsive and nice when we asked her for anything (we asked for an extra blanket and it appeared promptly at our door).
