This is an affordable, convenient apartment, and efforts have been made to keep it cozy and full of normal amenities. One note - it is not an entire home; rather, it is the bottom floor apartment, and you can hear any occupants above you. As other reviewers have mentioned, it does smell strongly of dog when you enter. We also found that it was not very well cleaned (even the vacuum was completely clogged), but hopefully this issue will be resolved in the future.
