I think this place is a great location. Although it’s near a busy street, the noise volume is to be expected. However I have to be honest, the place was dirty & broken down on the inside. This resulted in me canceling my stay here. I planned on coming to some type of mutual agreement with the owner. But my messages were ignored. It reached the point I had to get air b n b involved to resolve the situation.
1) When you walk in you notice the tiles are cracked . This is not shown in photos.
2) The dishes and pans were all dirty. It looked like someone left in a rush. One pan still had oil on it . There were forks, knives & utensils with food still one it.
3) The bathroom toilet was old & needed to be replaced. You could see though the paint & it looked stained.
4) The bathroom drawer was broken and hanging into place.
5) There’s pipes poking out the bathroom and a strange box in the bathroom with a plastic plant inside of it. I’m not sure what it’s there to cover up.
6) The fire alarm in the kitchen… was unplugged , not connected to the ceiling and slanted on the side.
7) The video games are not full sized. I love arcade games. These were tiny… but photographed in a way to make a false appearance.
8) There was an old torn up dish sponge in the sink. Yikes! So gross.
9) The pillows on the couch were stained . The couch was uncomfortable.
10) The bed in one of the bedrooms has no box springs. It’s also being held up by plywood , instead of proper railing. So when I went to lay down down the bed… it started to move. I wasn’t sure why. ( I’m not that big ) . Then I saw the plywood was moving from under the bed.
11) They have security cameras - that they did not share with us about . They told air b n b I had a pet. It’s my TRAINED service animal. It’s federal law that he goes with me for my condition. Instead of asking me directly about him, they told air b n b after I attempted to cancel for the filthiness of the location.
12) Many of the lights / light switches did not work.
13) We found stains on the bed linens.
14) The shelf in the bedroom was hanging off the wall.
15) Parking is NOT free. They need to be more honest about that. There are certain hours on certain days that are free. It’s very limited. We paid $60 for parking.
16) The laundry room is communal. It looks like the washer and dryer are in your place on the photos. It’s NOT.
17) When I reached out to the owner to address these concerns…. They were radio silent . This is why I’m now leaving a public review. Others need to be warned about my experience.
Overall, the owners can do better. There’s no excuse for not purchasing a new toilet seat, fixing a drawer , fixing shelves, cleaning dishes , cleaning linens or replacing them with new linens. When you walk into a home it should smell like it’s been cleaned. There should be spotless utensils, floors , linens …
I could look pass some of these major issues if the place was DISINFECTED during COVID and CLEANED better.
I’m concerned deeply about the surveillance they have in this apartment. And not telling customer they are being monitored . That’s trying disturbing & it needs to be clearly stated. ******
Moving forward, I would not recommend this place to anyone .
