We were greeted by the host and the whole check in process was easy. Early check in was $10 - we were notified about the charge in advance. The apartment is located very close to major landmarks. But I must say it came up short of our expectations because it's in need of maintenance as about every other thing was either already broken or was about to fall apart. Fresh pain on the walls would go a long way. The AC needs to be checked - we ran it on the lowest temperature and it would barely cool down the place. Also the outdoor furniture was missing for the first couple days and when I pointed it out, we got a new set the following day.
