I stayed here for 3 months because of a summer internship! The place is very nice, and what you see is what you get. The place is very clean, and the tenets in the building are so welcoming. Over all I had a great experience, but here are some things I came across as a long term stay.
If you are looking for a place with bright open windows, this room unfortunately didn’t have that. The room I had, had windows but looked into a large bamboo tree that blocked most of the natural sunlight.
The building is older, so the cabinets and other areas of the apartment are not updated. But if you are here for a short stay. Don’t let this stop you from coming to this place!
I did have plumbing issues in the shower because of the guests that stayed upstairs. But the team quickly fixed it, and I didn’t have any further problems.
Only inconvenience that bothered me, was not being able to use any appliance with the air conditioner. When I forgot, my power would turn off... I had to wait awhile for it to turn on.
Noise is normal for being in a downtown location. You’ll be surrounded by other buildings, and residents. So you’ll never know if a night would be louder than other.
Parking is scares, but I always found parking around or near the building. Some days I would drive around the block a couple times, but in the end. My car was safe and never had an issue. I also utilized the parking garage if i didn’t feel like driving around.
Great place to stay if you love going out to eat. There are many great restaurants down the street. They have outdoor dining and practicing safe and social distancing. There is a Starbucks and a coffee bean & tea shop right around the corner!
Wash room was upstairs and always available. Just be sure to grab a roll of quarters from your bank due to the coin shortage. Local grocery stores won’t provide. $1.75 to wash — $1.00 to dry. Never had an issue!!
Overall, I, as a single women felt safe. All the amenities were useful and accessible. I will be staying here again, when back in town. It is super affordable, and worth it. I felt comfy and at home!
Happy travels! :)
