Where do we start here. This place grew on us but I don't think I would stay here again.
Pros:
- Location was awesome. Nice and quiet at night and convenient Uber/Lyft to all the must-sees. Also a Walgreens and several yummy local food spots within walking distance.
- Beds were very comfortable
- The place was very unique and is definitely an unforgettable experience
- Air conditioning was lovely
Cons:
- The cleanliness level didn't meet my expectations - lots of staining on rugs, bedding, pillows, etc. Hairs in the shower and daybed on check-in. I didn't feel like I wanted to walk around without shoes.
- Disrepair - I get it, the place is over 100 years old, however, some of the things I am talking about aren't about the age. The (newer) bathroom faucet is so wobbly that it turns when you use it. There is a shelf in the bathroom that is about the fall off of the wall. Wallpaper is peeling off, lots of visible water damage in the bathroom. Trim on outer wood door is falling off the building leaving exposed rusty nails. A broken piece of glass in the enclosed porch is just chilling there.
- It was mentioned in the description that you could fit up to 6 people there if there were kids, which sure I could agree with, but there is NO WAY I would bring my kid there. You have to climb a pretty sketchy looking metal staircase to get up to the apartment, also there are tons of breakable decor out and about that would need to be put away to kid proof this place. Not to mention the aforementioned broken glass, rusty nails, etc.
- Stairs - this isn't as much of a con but I would say it should be mentioned the outside stairs are a bit steep and tricky for anyone who has much physical trouble getting around, elderly, littles, etc.
I thank you for the hospitality and sorry to brutalize you a bit in the review but this was just our experience. Cheers.
