This property is far from an “oasis.”
If you are traveling alone, I do not recommend this location. There were 2 of us and I still felt unsafe staying at this property.
The lock on the exterior door does not work properly. Not only did we have issues with the door, the other renters also struggled with the lock - and we had to let them in.
The exterior door also does not shut and latch properly. The upstairs renter wasn’t able to shut and lock the door - so the door was left open all night.
There are no exterior lights in this property.
There are also no working lights in the foyer.
The windows are old and thin. There is a sewer grate outside the property and the smell permeates the apartment. Also, you will hear everything - it’s street level and again the windows are old.
Finally, the place is just gross.
I stayed in the primary bedroom - and again this is not an “oasis.” There was hair in the corners of the sink, a questionable leftover container next to the toilet, and goo on the baseboard near the only useable power outlet.
I realize that as humans, we have different expectations. In addition, I have also list on Airbnb and have rental properties. I wasn’t looking for LUX - I was looking for basic and clean.
Finally, I reached out to the owner and originally he was compliant and communicative. He did send someone to check on the stench in the property. There is also a property manager on property.
However, when I challenged the safety of the property - he became increasing hostile. I had to end communications and leave it to an intermediary at Airbnb.
Not a great stay.
