My partner and I stayed for ~40 days
What was great:
Phenomenal location and high ceilings. Check in was a breeze and we had zero issues with receiving mail here. Rachel’s response time was great and she was proactive about fixing/bettering issues.
What the host can’t control:
The building is tight and dated, and the unit faces construction and a playground so every weekday from 9:30 am - 11 and 3 pm to 4:30 a daycare full of screaming/crying/playing 3-5 year old kids are released for recess and it will wake you up and irritate you :/ But on the weekends and rainy days it is very peaceful.
What was misleading/things the host can control:
The bed is not a Casper. This was a the main reason besides the location why we selected this place. I was disappointed to discover a very firm IKEA bed when I removed the unclean mattress cover to throw away. When I did this the head board that is not fixed securely to the wall also fell on me. The host did send us a new mattress cover, sheets, and a 3 inch foam mattress topper to mitigate the issue and I suggested she secure it for the next guest. Also the speaker was missing so she sent another.
Her beloved awesome housekeeper unfortunately was not well when we stayed there so the apt wasn’t as clean as desired upon arrival. She used a new person that wasn’t thorough forgot to replace some of the listed items like toilet paper and took the spare keys so we were tasked with making more (host offered to pay for which was nice). I hope the rockstar housekeeper is well now and does a better job for the next guest.
All in all- The location was great, the host did their best to correct the issues as they popped up (unfortunately there were quite a few), but the location can be noisy in an unexpected way, and some of the amenities hopefully are listed accurately now.
