The pros..It’s a good location right across the street from the lake. The place was clean and the bed was pretty comfortable. It’s pretty spacious for a studio and the layout was cute. Enough room for 2 people to be comfortable but definitely not 3 unless the 3rd person is a small child!
But…We booked a stay for 2 nights and we only stayed one. After a long drive, the stress of finding parking, hauling all our stuff to the building and up a pretty sketchy elevator we struggled to get in the door. The deadbolt unlocked just fine but the key would stick in the lock. No matter which way you turned the key it would not come out of the lock. Every time we locked or unlocked the door we had to fight with the lock to get the key back out! Super frustrating!
The other main issue was there was no working outlet in the bedroom area. One outlet was inaccessible (behind headboard), one just didn’t work at all and another seems to have been painted over (you could not fit a plug into it). We had to charge our phones in the kitchen overnight. Not having a phone near the bed when staying in a strange place was not ok! Had to get up out of bed to even check to see what time it was!
The place is listed as “newly updated”…While there were clearly some updates much of the work was done poorly. It’s an older building and the unit still very much shows it’s age. None of that really bothered us though because the place did seem to be clean. But the problems with the lock and lack of working outlets were definitely deal breakers for us. Did not feel comfortable staying the second night.
I messaged Alex about these issues but got no response. Still have not received any communication from him..
