Emeel is really nice and super responsive to issues. I think he really tries to make his guests have a good experience, I just unfortunately can't recommend staying at his place for a few reasons.
The apartment itself is pretty nice, it feels big. When I got there there was no trash cans and Emeel said he doesnt use trash cans (?) which is a little weird, but he ended up sending a trash can (although it was super tiny). The apartment has huge, really nice windows, but the automatic blinds act up a lot so be prepared for that. The dining stuff is okay--nothing to write home about, and the utensils and dishwasher were pretty dirty when I checked in.
The big issues have to do with the apartment building itself. The unit is on the 16th floor, and ALL of the FOUR elevators constantly were down. I had to walk up and down 16 flights of floors at least 5 times. Not Emeel's fault, but again, for this price, not worth it. They shut off the water pretty consistently. And when I was moving out (which I had to do early) the parking pass to get into the parking garage did not work. The woman working there said she could not help me, and so I had to pay $20 and carry all of my suitcases of stuff down the street.
The biggest issue is the area the apartment is in. Emeel is super upfront about it and again, it is not his fault. It is just unfortunately a really depressing and unclean area due to the multiple homeless encampments. It is up to you as to whether this is an issue for you, but as a woman living alone it got to the point where I felt uncomfortable every time I left the apartment.
These issues are mostly not Emeel's fault, but unfortunately, I cannot recommend that anyone stay here.
