The apartment and the building are very nice and new, and it is near some wonderful neighborhoods, within a couple blocks of the apartment. The building staff are very friendly and helpful, and the building's amenities are nice, especially the gym and the pool. The community room, with a pool table and wifi, does get reserved for private events sometimes, so is not always available, but can be a really pleasant place to hang out.
The apartment faces the street, which is busy almost 24 hours a day, so there is street noise, which may keep you from opening the really wonderful sliding doors onto the balcony. Bring earplugs for sleeping. The beds are very firm, if that's your thing.
I never met the hosts, but check-in and check-out could not have been easier.
