As advertised, this rental was in a good location about a 30-40 minute walk to the Broadway nightlife, with Uber/ Lyft during peak nighttime hours costing 30-40$. Good place to crash after a night out.
The unit was relatively clean on the surface although under sink cabinets, shower and items like baseboards/ light fixtures were not clean. There was a general state of disrepair including light covers not attached to walls, ceiling fan being unbalanced (looked like it would fall off when turned on), window air conditioner not fully attached to window so you could see outside.
The air conditioning situation was a challenge in general as the units really struggled to keep up with the 80 degree weather. The front bedroom is conditioned through a wall unit from the living room (cold air diverted from the living room through a vent into the bedroom). The back bedroom uses a stand alone unit (looks like a swamp cooler) which is extremely loud when turned on. It was also very easy to hear everything going on in the unit above. If you need quiet to sleep, this is not the right rental for you.
Check in was a small challenge as the unit was not ready at 4pm. We were waiting on the cleaner to leave and that may have rushed him. The unit advertises to have toilet paper, extra linens for pull out couch, trash bags and body wash available and that was not the case. There was 1 and 1/2 rolls of toilet paper- not enough for 4 days with 4 adults so would suggest bringing along extra. The body wash was empty. Sheets for the pull out couch were not available and no trash bags were left.
Communication was good up until the point where we asked if some trash bags could be dropped off and we were left to fend for ourselves. The check in instructions were not accurate as they directed you to obtain towels from the closet in the bathroom although this was locked. Finding towels were a bit of a scavenger hunt as one bedroom had a set on the bed and the other did not- ended up finding them for the other bedroom in the first bedroom’s closet.
Overall, the value was good for the location and the unit served its purpose for a long weekend, but the small touches could be improved and the air conditioning and repair issues should be addressed.
