The apartment is better described as a hotel with limited self service amenities. The gym was really outdated, dirty, and tiny. The kitchen was on the main floor shared between all 20 guest rooms. Although there was a laundry room guest did not have access to it. Instead guest had to use a laundry service located a 1/2 a block away. In the early mornings you will be woken up by loud violent screaming. We initially though something terrible had happened but quickly found out that there is a new age/ yoga/ holistic/ mediative healing center right next door. They have extreme practices for healing the soul which I’m cool with but not at 5 or 6 AM. Overall the neighborhood is really nice and more resembles San Francisco. Also this location has a staff that cleans your room around mid day. I was shocked to find this out when I came home mid day from walking my dog. I was had two problems with this: 1. I was traveling with my dog and what if the cleaning staff came in and my dog escaped or bit someone because he was protecting his home. 2. I was not expecting this and never though to take extra precautions to secure my passport, iPad, or extra credit cards. There was a safe in the room but the batteries were dead. Also they management did not have any “do not disturb” signs to hang on the the door knob outside.
Overall this was a very nice place and had a lot of beautiful art to look at. But I was expecting a different experience based on what I had read when booking this location.
