Stayed in this airbnb for 4 months, overall it was a good stay but some things in the apartment do need to be revamped and replaced, especially for the price of the Airbnb.
Pros:
- The location, close to Union Station, multiple street cars and in the entertainment district so it’s a walking distance from a lot great spots.
- The view from the balcony is amazing
- The building has a 24h concierge, and decent amenities like gym and pool.
- The host is very nice and accommodating and had a welcome package with some helpful things inside when we arrived
- The host also made sure our check in experience was as smooth as possible due to arriving around 3am in the city which was very much appreciated.
- The amenities in the apartment are nice (laundry machine, dryer and dishwasher)
Where things can be improved:
The apartment in itself needs some work, and we believe these are things the hosts should be taking care of changing regularly:
- We replaced the shower curtain ourselves because it was moldy, the washroom has some mold in it was well.
- We got new bed sheets myself as soon as we moved in since most of the ones provided were stained and then contacted the host to get a new mattress cover sheet as well.
- Pots and pans are very old and in need of a replacement.
- We pointed out that one of the bed frames was broken but there was no follow up after we inquired about it by the hosts in the 4 months.
- The balcony was dusty and messy when we got there and would also need a deep clean to be usable.
- The host isn’t too proactive when reached out to (I had to get emergency mail since the mailbox key was not provided and it took days before I even got a response and I had to follow up multiple times).
