The size of the apartment was great. We visited as a family of 7 and there was ample sleeping space for everyone. It was in close proximity to all of the places that we wanted to visit. The area felt safe and was close to a Walgreens, Dunkin, Starbucks and other locations to get a quick bite. There were several things we didn’t love tho. Some things are within the control of the owner and some were not.
Housekeeping was in apartment when we arrived so we had to park on street. There was another day when we arrived home from being out and we found someone was parked in our spot, turns out it was a housekeeper cleaning another one of the units.
Street parking is horrible. Roads are extremely damaged
Parking in garage is super tight, could barely fit mini van inside.
Entry hallway dirty with street debris
Stairs are steep
Blinds are a bit sheer, you can see out to the street/neighboring buildings, doesn’t provide feeling of much privacy. Allows for the street light to come in through to the room all night long. We felt like we couldn’t even turn on the lights in the room properly out of fear of people next door/on the street being able to see in.
Once paid, communication is not as fast as previously was
Minimal seating in living room. Single chair is stained. (Definitely not as pictured) There are 6 beds in the apartment. Even if there was 1 person in each bed, there is not enough sitting area in the living room. Had to pull out the cot that was in one of the closet for more sitting space.
There is construction going on in area, can hear trucks early in the morning
Dining room chair was wobbly and had stickers on it
Some of the closet doors do not close properly
Food from previous occupants let’s in the pantry/freezer (somethings weren’t an issue like sealed drinks, other things were actually opened chips/bread/pie)
Guest bathroom missing toilet paper holder
Towels super thin and leave lint on your body
Walls need painting
No tv in rooms (this wasn’t advertised but it would be nice to have more tvs)
Master closet unusable due to large carpet taking up the space
Outlet/ hole behind bed
Door to a couple of the guest bedrooms was split on the side as if someone tried to force their way in. Couldn’t lock master door
Some of our neighbors were a bit rowdy at night. Several nights where we would hear stomping/jumping and loud laughter. We didn’t report as we were worried there’d be some type of retaliation from the neighbors
Listing mentioned breakfast provided, not sure where at…but that was false.
