Overall this place was a great experience with some but very minor flaws that I think can be easily improved. I'll list my pros and cons:
pros:
1. very spacious, easily can accommodate sleeping 4 people. the beds are very comfortable too and there's enough sheets and blankets.
2. laundry works great. there's a nest that makes temperature control very easy which I loved.
3. full kitchen. everything was functional and worked. fridge has an ice maker which I love. pots, pan, silverware, glasses and mugs, basic spices like salt and pepper are all there.
4. bathroom is nice and clean and spacious. plenty of towels and whatnot.
5. the surrounding area is quiet and safe. not in a sketchy area at all. there's a very convenient market across the street and a stop and shop just a 5 minute walk away. nice little area overall to stroll around in.
6. TV provided with Apple TV. basic apps like Netflix and whatnot are there for use and you can sign into your own account if you want.
cons:
very few to list but here the are.
1. the kitchen is great however the knives are horrendous. there's one knife capable of cutting vegetables and its pathetic, broken, and not really safe to use. the handle is flimsy and the blade is extremely dull. this kitchen would be perfect if the owner invested in a knife set. doesn't haveto be fancy, just a few functional knives would make this place 5/5 stars.
2. back door doesn't seem to lock.
one of the bedrooms located in the back leads outside to a small yard area. the door lock was for some reason dysfunctional so we couldn't lock the back door. it's not the worst thing because the back yard is enclosed by a fence with a locked gate. but it's still something that should be addressed for safety purposes.
overall I loved this cozy little apartment and definitely recommend it if you're looking to stay in the area and want a place that has all your basic needs.
