We booked this apartment for 3 reasons: 1. It was in a central location and we wanted to be able to walk to local tourist attractions.
2. The place looked spacious and modern.
3. We thought the tub was going to be big enough/deep enough for a good bath.
Pros: They allowed us to check in early since we arrived with our bags before 3pm. The woman who met us was friendly and gave us some helpful tips for getting around and going out. The place was in a central location and made getting around easy and quick for the most part.
Cons: The photos made the place seem much higher up than it was, which would have been cool with the large windows throughout the apartment to offer natural light. However the place is actually on the second floor and faces other large windows, so for privacy we had to keep the blinds drawn most of the time. The photos also made everything in the apartment look bigger and more spaced out. When we arrived we realized that it’s a pretty tiny studio, which ended up being pretty cramped for two people staying there for 7 days. The place could have used an update of furniture and appliances. The tv had basic cable and a DVD player so we were pretty bored on rainy nights, and the microwave was slow to work and hard to open because the button was jammed. The tub was also clogged when we first used it, and we reached out to management about it, but no one was sent so we just bought draino to take care of it.
Overall I think it would have been a great place for an overnight stay on business, or perhaps a weekend trip. But for our vacation we were hoping for something a little more homey and comfortable.
