The apartment itself was as described. However, there was a huge blood stain on one of the guest room beds. We did not feel like the rooms had been cleaned to standard, and we knew the bed linens had not been laundered. The beds were a little firmer than I like. There is a train that comes by every morning around 6:30 that sounds like it's right outside the window.
The apartment was in a rough neighborhood. However, we never felt too unsafe. It is a close drive to downtown. Although it is in a gated neighborhood, the gate was never locked, and the door to our specific building was never locked.
I had messaged our host about four hours before our arrival asking if we could have early access. But I never heard back from them.
We would not stay here again.
