The space is beautiful, artistic, and comforting in the COVID environment, where cleanliness is important to health. New, innovative appliances and fixtures are a bonus, and functional. Having a guaranteed parking space was a selling point for me, in this prime location where parking is extremely competitive. The door-lock system made check-in hassle-free, and eliminated the need for keeping up with a key throughout my stay. The only downside for me was the city-maintained steps necessary for access to the parking space. But Katie was upfront about that factor. Also, it would be less of a problem for someone who is better at traveling light, or in a non-pandemic time when it feels less risky to shop locally for food rather than bringing my own.
