All in all, I might stay here again for a short trip but not an extended stay.
The location of this AirBnB is phenomenal. There were so many things in walking distance, and quick access to downtown. Walgreens right there, plenty of coffee and great restaurants.
Things that made it a challenge: it was not mention in the listing that it was a ground unit which as a solo female traveler is pretty important information for me. The neighborhood was pretty quiet, there is a parking spot offered and I have two dogs with me so it ended up being fine but again just important to consider.
With it being a ground unit, the bugs were a continuous challenge. The spiders in Lakeview in general are crazy in the fall, and I had a hand vacuum on me so was able to quickly take care of them but it was constant. Spiders really freak me out so between all the spiders outside and the many inside I just could not relax.
My allergies (a pretty mild dust and mold allergy) were going crazy all month! With very frequent dusting it helped but ultimately you’re in the ground unit of an older building so short of a solid dehumidifier and air purifier the dust and mildew are hard to combat I suppose.
