I don't recommend staying here if you're sensitive to smells and dirty places. Besides the smoke smell in the living room both bedrooms smelled like dogs.
I tried opening the windows and I noticed how dirty they are, and also they slide back down when you open them.
Overall both the apartment and the building are dated and need better maintenance and cleaning. There was so many little annoying things that made our stay unpleasant, and it definitely didn't feel like a place that costs $525 per night.
Like clogged drains, non-working door knob in the bedroom, huge carpet stains, smells, dirty floors. The temperature of water in the shower is very hard to control, and it took a lot of time every time we took a shower.
Theres a trash chute right in the middle of each floor, which also makes the building smell, especially when you go to the laundry room on the 2nd floor.
Also there's no ramp to access the building when the coffeeshop is closed (2pm) so if you have a stroller or mobility issues you have to think about it because there's about 3 steps at the main entrance. Also there's no tea or coffee in the unit which is not very thoughtful of the guests.
I did reach out to the host, and they tried to accommodate our needs which I appreciate. But they also tried to prove me wrong, and their main reason was "Nobody complained about this before".
They did give me a partial refund which helped a little but I had to waste a lot of my time and energy for that.
I just wish I'd booked elsewhere in the first place.
Location is amazing but that's about it.
