It was nice staying at Julie's place, mostly due to convenient location and the cat. I loved that kitchen is very well equipped - there is plenty of tools and cookware. Julie is friendly and helpful, check in and checkout was smooth.
Pros:
- Great location, approx 8-10 minutes walk from subway stations (Morgan Av or Jefferson str). Cool restaurants and coffee shops all around.
- Great kitchen if you cook: has everything you need.
- Cat Kitty: I love cats so it was a bliss cuddling with this fluffy orange ball of fur when you get home.
Cons:
- The building is really really old and seems to be made of cardboard: you will hear absolutely EVERYTHING. What happens on the street, next door and upstairs: including what your neighbours are watching and talking about. My advice - bring earplugs. Good earplugs.
- Julie is very busy at this point of her life so the apartment kinda feels abandoned. No one really cleans it or looks after it at all.
- Sometimes they smoke in the living room. Which would've been a problem for me, but luckily I didn't feel the smoke in my room.
