The owner/host provided astoundingly accurate information about the accomodations.
With the very clear warnings and the complete and honest assessment of it, I have to provide 5 stars. The location is great. The parking to reach the lockbox can be challenging, so be able to walk or use Uber/Lyft.
The space is open. Comfortable for 4 but you could accommodate 6 if two share the bed, two on the bedroom floor, with two in the living area.
The kitchen is basic and easy to utilize. if you order food, make sure you include utensils as some eating utensils may be in short supply. Not surprising to be short spoons in these properties. People throw away food with utensils at times.
The traditional basic window treatments attempt to provide privacy in the bedroom. if you require better coverage, you can use the large picture frame, prop it up againt the window using the unique chair from the bar area next to the dining table. I felt comfortable once it was in place.
Any concern of smoking residue clearly was out of an abundance of caution. It smelled neutral and I have a sensitive nose. That was a relief.
Everything else exceeded expectations. The directions were accurate and excellent. The owner was explicit and the directions and visuals were over the top and kept the situation for a no contact entry so successful. my compliments to their attention to detail in getting me to and into the room.
The clarity and frank observation provided leaves no surprises and the space felt bigger than the pictures presented.
For location and pricing, a reasonably good option. There are cheaper hotel rooms nearby that do not offer the same security, and without a kitchen nor extended floor space. So, while it is not a steal, it is quite rationally, efficiently competing against those lower-end choices while providing the useful kitchen and the gated security.
Quite the effectively executed condo rental. The clarity and frank assessment were key and built trust. I never met the owner, but the communication in the ad and in follow up communication shared muted frustration and exasperation that renting condos can have on the owner when renters are not respectful, break the rules, and/or damage, whether by accident or willfully, the space being rented. Direct, honest, and exceptionally clear.
No stress check in and check out. The owner went beyond. Thank You!
