Would never stay here again.
1. THE NOISE IS INSANE-from the front door slamming and all top level rooms at all hours of the day and night. Plus everyone thudding up and down the stairs. We are very easy going and thought maybe the reviews were exaggerated, but it is UNBEARABLE. I know it’s in old building, but I HAVE NEVER had to buy earplugs ever even in all the hostels I’ve slept in in the past.
2. The air conditioner is almost as loud as the front door slamming every half hour. It probably needs maintenance. Also providing ear plugs would let guests know you understand. The a/c remote doesn’t stay connected to the unit so it beeps constantly with uncontrolled temperatures and would turn on and off all the time.
3. There is not a king bed, there are 2 twin beds that come apart every night, it is uncomfortable, and my partner and I basically slept on 2 twins beds and if we tried to cuddle you fall in the crack- Beds are also SOOO stiff.
4. The sheets were clean but stained on arrival with blue dye and some crusted clear stains
5. There was dust on top areas and it smells musty as there isn’t a ton of circulation, we did use the dehumidifier but an air purifier would be more practical
6. The “work space” is a kitchen table so for 2 people it is not ideal for working and eating so I would not call this a “home office set up” NOR is it great for remote work due to the noise level and the uncomfortable wood chairs.
7. Had electrical issues a few times where the breaker would trip when having lights on and trying to use the toaster.
This place is not ideal for working, and probably one of the most unpleasant stays I’ve had with an airbnb mostly due to the noise and sleep situation.
PROS: there was 2 days of coffee on arrival, and ALL the restaurants and lounges on the small street block are fabulous and worth trying.
