Overall, great unit with extremely communicative and accommodating hosts. Only ‘oh by the ways’:
-Host admitted they used the unit for hosting single day events more, which meant their kitchen didn’t have a lot of routine utensils readily stocked, but once we informed hosts they immediately brought them down and apologized. Let them know before arrival you intend to cook and this should help alleviate any surprises.
-Hosts live on top floor of unit and you have the middle and bottom levels. There is a separate entrance for them so there was no intrusion on our privacy. This also helped with quick response to our needs and requests, including aforementioned kitchen supplies (they even hooked us up with spices to help with our grilling). They were also extremely courteous to us while we were using the back yard area as they have two dogs and made sure we were comfortable with them bringing them out before doing so.
-They have a small and large charcoal grill to use, just inform them before your arrival if you want to use so they can have it ready.
-They have a garage you can park car in, but it is an extra charge. Hosts were extremely accommodating for us though because only other parking is street parking and they started some construction before our visit and they let us use free of charge.
-Fire pit is an extra charge, so be sure to ask if you intend to use before arrival.
-If you’re not used to living in an urban city environment, the area can seem a bit daunting. At no time did I have any concern, however, while staying at the unit or grilling and playing corn hole in the back yard.
