Pros: close to two metro stations, close to good restaurants and very walkable, clean linens, comfortable beds, super nice and communicative renters, big kitchen with plenty of dishes and supplies
Cons: fairly grimy, in need of a full scrub down and paint job, very funky decorations, random wire holding up the shower head (pretty sketchy), gaps and holes in the floors
I'm not uptight and have stayed in many AirBnBs, some funkier than others. I don't mind funky and don't have particularly high standards, but peeling and chipping paint, grimy baseboards, bathroom and furniture are not my idea of cute. I think this apartment has amazing potential given its location, but it could use a facelift. I was actually surprised by its condition given everyone else's positive reviews. I hope Lexie and Graham capitalize on this hidden gem and give it some love to bring out its potential.
