We stayed here for 5 months while renovating our home, and I think it's more suited for a shorter duration. Kamal, the host, was responsive and very friendly, it was more the apartment itself for two people + a dog and cat for that length of time.
Pros:
• Location– by downtown and Five Points (good food, bars, music)
• Great view of the skyline out on Shelby
• Fully furnished, comfortable bed
• Ample parking
Cons:
• Musty smell – AC unit in bedroom didn't cool the kitchen / living room space adequately, leaving the unit quite stuffy on warmer days. It was tolerable when cold out, still stuffy though.
• Only 1 of the 3 windows opened but it didn't have a screen, so bugs would get in
• Washer/dryer issues during our stay (Kamal said they're replacing)
• Hot water was finicky during shower
• Water stains (mold?) in shower base and drywall
• Doors falling off hinges / didn't close
• Ext. stairs *very* slippery during freezing temps
