We had mostly a decent stay at Jim's, with a few suggestions for improvement.
GOOD: Jim is a nice guy, and communicates well. The apartment is cute, and in a nice location with character. It's also nicely laid-out, clean and well-decorated. Checkin was smooth.
AIR & COOLING ISSUES: We knew there was no A/C, but achieving natural cooling and circulation was a real challenge, and made for an uncomfortable night. Some of the windows had no screens and we did not want to leave them open for safety reasons. In the windows that did have screens, they did not fit properly, leaving big gaps for mosquitos and insects. The bedroom window has no crank so you actually have to go outside to the back yard to close it completely. The front and back screen doors did not actually have screens installed making them useless for ventilation without letting in critters. On top of the window issues, the living room and Master BR ceiling fans did not operate correctly for various reasons, the Second BR fan made a ton of noise when on high, and the only portable fan was a loud commercial unit. If you're staying in warmer months, make sure these have been addressed.
KITCHEN: Minimalist, but not outfitted for someone that likes to cook. It could use more utensils, oven pans and dishes, and a few more plates/glasses.
With the cooling issues fixed, we would certainly stay at Jim's again, if he'd have us.
