This was a great stay for our group. While there were some areas near the apartment that I wouldn't have felt safe walking around after dark, there's large areas that are having a renaissance of shops, restaurants, and bars. This is also very convenient to downtown (5-10 minute drive/uber). This building and all units are brand new and very well appointed. Our unit had a balcony, however it only looked out on another cinder block wall about 6 inches away.
Parking is very limited (it's nice that you at least have one pass to the building garage even though spots are first come-first serve). The developer/host was very responsive when there was a vagrant hanging out in the garage soliciting change etc, and pretty soon there was a security/police presence in the area a lot more. This is certainly something to be expected in a downtown/urban area, but I appreciate the host's willingness to rectify this and make their guests feel safe.
