WHAT WAS GREAT:
The location is awesome. Within walking distance to nearly all of downtown if you bring your walking shoes. Lots of cheap/free public transit available as well.
The unit is very cute and tasteful, and a nice place to come back to at the end of a long day. As mentioned in other reviews, it does get lout at night but it was not unbearable with the fan on.
Matt was always quick to respond and helped us fix the broken air conditioning in no time flat. Had a technician out within the hour and was fixed first thing the next day during business hours. Really appreciate him going above and beyond that way!
WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN GREAT:
Many of the more practical amenities that were advertised were missing little things you needed to actually take advatange of them. Examples include: a Nespresso without any coffee pods or coffee mugs (and we weren’t able to find pods at Ralph’s, the closest grocery store), silverware but no plates or bowls, a bathtub with no way to plug the drain to fill it up, no place to hang wet towels, no dedicated workspace as listed in the ad, and no robe. I would not normally comment on little things like that but they were especially noticeable since they were listed as amenities in the listing, but not available IRL. All little easy things that could have made a good experience a truly great experience.
WHAT WASN’T IDEAL:
Bed was super creaky with two people in it. Couldn’t really roll over or readjust in the middle of the night without hearing the other person.
There was a remodel happening in the unit above us and we were woken up to VERY loud construction at 7:30am one morning as it sounded like they were replacing the floor. It was more than ambience, it sounded like they were drilling, scraping, and hammering right in the unit. This is not an evergreen concern I’m sure, but something that would have been nice to know.
