I chose this listing for it’s proximity to the hospitals where I worked this summer. This listing is exactly what you’ll get - just the necessities. You’re mostly paying for the location, which is super convenient. The neighborhood is nice and clean and there’s plenty of food spots nearby. Street parking is usually easy but can be difficult on certain times (like dinner time on the weekends).
The house is old - the AC freezes over if you let it run too long so you have to give it breaks, but the kitchen appliances still work well. Shower had hot water. Coin laundry in the basement work great. The power went out on half the house one night and the electric company was outside my window until 4am fixing it when I had work the next morning. (The landlord was extremely responsive in keeping us updated with this situation).
You have to sign a short term lease contract with the landlord and they have strict rules so make sure to read through it before you sign. He will meet you for check in and give you a tour. Before checking out you will have to clean the linens and the apartment for the next guest before you leave because they don’t charge a cleaning fee.
Overall, a good stay but would not have booked if not for the convenient location.
