This is a very odd space. It's not an apartment, it's a store front or an office space with a pull-out couch. The door to the space has floor to ceiling frosted glass, and on the other side is a public courtyard with other businesses in it, so people walk right up to the glass door during the day, it's a little unnerving. The courtyard is very noisy, with construction and banging noises throughout the morning.
The "bed" is a pull out sofa that is rock-hard with a seam in the middle and bars you can feel. It is *extremely* uncomfortable. Also, because it's not really a residential space, there's no way to lock or unlock the door from the inside. And we were only given one key. So when one person left the apartment, we had to decide between one person being locked inside with no way to get out (unsafe) or one person being locked out with no way to get in.
There is a chocolatier next door to the apartment, and the smell of grinding/roasting chocolate is *VERY* strong inside the apartment, coming out of an air vent. I know that sounds pleasant, but it's not. Before I figured out that it was chocolate, I thought it was rotting food left in the trash. It's so intense that it made it hard to be in the space when the smell was at its strongest. My clothes still smell like the smell.
We also had issues with check in. The apartment wasn't ready at the agreed-upon time, and when we contacted the host, he wasn't able to tell us when it would be ready. We ended up sitting on the sidewalk with all our bags for a very long time. The apartment wasn't ready until over three hours after we were supposed to check in. When we did finally get in, there was still dirty laundry in the closet.
The plus sides were the location, and the kitchen and bathroom spaces were very nice.
