Great points about Nicky’s urban farm apartment. The location was awesome, the place was very spacious for 3 people. We enjoyed having 2 bathroom sinks. We also enjoyed the concert that was going on when we arrived but would have preferred to know ahead of time since we were driving all day and in town for medical appointments early the next day. Noise was not an issue at night though- which was a relief. The concert guests helped us find our host as check-in instructions hadn’t posted by the time we arrived. Nicky was accommodating and got us a mostly full set of clean sheets for the sofa bed. The fridge was very cold, stove is gas, WiFi was awesome- which was great as my husband had to work half the time we were there. We got parking out front no problem both nights and the neighborhood seemed completely friendly and safe.
The main thing I would recommend being addressed is the mold / mildew in the shower / grout and on the ceiling in the bathroom. The shower is nice in itself but probably isn’t getting ventilated well, and would be difficult to clean with only a rain head. The kitchen light is pretty finicky, I was the only person who could get it to stay on, a few lights were burnt out in the bathroom. It is a garden flat off a pretty busy backyard setting, there are flys and mosquitos that easily get in- this seemed expected but it would have been nice to have a screen of some kind on the only window in the apartment. Overall, I think the photos or the apartment could use some updating. I would have been more comfortable 20 years ago or if I were partying, but I it was a bit lackluster & could use a little TLC. Because we were in town for medical appointments for my mom which required much hands on coordination it was necessary for me to focus on that rather than bring the lights or shower up. Overall I liked Nicky, she seemed attentive and we were safe so I was grateful for the stay regardless.
