Overall we had a lovely time! I would probably stay here again. But I want to be clear about the things that made our stay difficult.
PRO:
Location! Like other guests have said, this location is excellent.
Off street parking is available for a fee.
Full kitchen with a few staples (coffee, spices, sweeteners…)
Quick communication with host.
CON:
There was no preparation for our arrival. The kitchen hadn’t been fully cleaned. The heaters hadn’t been turned on and are difficult to function. It took hours for the place to warm up.
The sofa bed isn’t a pull out, but more like a futon. The metal frame work runs down the center of the bed, and can be felt through the night.
The floor throughout the apartment is at different heights. The kitchen and bathroom are raised nearly a foot, the shower is set into the floor below that. Watch your step.
Finally, necessary information about apartment functions, parking, checkout, etc. was not available unless we asked the host for it. A printed guidebook of some kind is needed.
