Let me start with the positive. The property is beautiful and in a great location. There is a shopping center a 10-minute walk and the street is very quiet and peaceful. The apartment was very clean and check in was easy and convenient. We were very pleased with all of that!
On the other hand, guests should be aware of one key problem: if you are in one of the downstairs apartments, the noise from upstairs is unbelievably loud! The floors are creaky and paper-thin. We were woken up in the middle of the night by our upstairs neighbors returning home. The sound from them just walking around was so loud that it sounded like someone was breaking in. In fact, we could even hear their phone buzzing every time they got a notification or a call. We were woken up by this in the middle of the night and in the morning both nights of our stay.
Additionally, the hot water situation was not great. It was hot for about five minutes and then quickly became cold.
Kevin (the host) left his cell number at the apartment, so I gave him a call to discuss this feedback and ask for a partial refund. He was extremely dismissive, saying that he had not heard this from anybody else, and would absolutely not be refunding anything. In fact, he tried to accuse me of blackmail! I thought I was being helpful by giving him a call instead of just leaving a negative review, but apparently not. He was very rude on the phone and then hung up on me, saying that he would be leaving a bad review for me as well.
In short: the property is great, but try to get a top floor or bring earplugs. Perhaps this was unique to my unit (#104) but I don’t think so. Hopefully they will be fixing the hot water. You can decide yourself how you weigh these pros and cons, but be aware of them. I’m giving two stars because this was a big deal for us and Kevin was extremely rude.
