We were a foursome (two couples) that stayed for a week and it was great. The building has a cool modern industrial feel, with a 24hr desk person. The apartment itself is split, so the two queen bedrooms are separated by the kitchen/living room and each has its own full bathroom. The space had everything we needed, save hangers (only 8 in the whole apartment), including washer/dryer, full kitchen, coffeemaker, blender & toaster.
There are some extra security hoops to jump through before actually arriving (uploading your ID, etc), but it was an easy process and the building was very secure & comfortable so it made sense that they wanted to know who was renting the apartment.
A few notes about our stay:
- In the mornings, there is a full service coffee/tea/hot chocolate machine in the main lobby and it was a wonderful way to start each day.
- A separate set of elevators (from the ones that lead the apartment) will take you to the rooftop that has beautiful views and a pool for those visiting in the summer.
- If you're staying more than a couple days, you may need to consider purchasing Tidepods and/or paper towels, as we ran out of both during our weeklong stay.
- There is a Starbucks two doors down, a great restaurant nearby called Farmbird, a CVS on one corner and a Whole Foods on the other.
The only negative about our stay was that the second floor hallway smelled like marijuana during our entire visit. You couldn't smell it once you were in the apartment, but I just wanted to mention it in case anyone is particularly sensitive to the odor.
All in all: host was easy to get in touch with, check-in/check-out was easy, building was beautiful, apartment was comfortable and safe. We would highly recommend it.
