My stay at this studio was fine. No better, no worse.
The prior concerns about noise are very true: you can hear the neighbors very clearly through the emergency door in the kitchen. The street noise...the bathroom plumbing....the stairs in the hall...all loud. For better or worse, the cyclic drone of the in-window air conditioner drowns out some of this noise.
This is the kind of rental where I expect the owner has never actually stayed the night, or they would not have made the choices they did. (Hooks in strange places where towels don’t fit, misdirected lighting, wear and tear on cheap furniture). FWIW, the whole building appears to be owned by a company who rents all the units. It’s a money-making endeavor. There’s nothing outright wrong with it to say that I would *never* return, but I don’t particularly want to return.
