Bret had great and clear communication and guidelines regarding check in. The location is stellar and exactly as described.
Unfortunately, it felt like the apartment was not well cleaned before our arrival. The bed sheets had a big yellow stain and while Bret replied very quickly when I messaged him about it, there were no attempts to rectify the situation by providing a location where clean sheets could be located or anything, which was disappointing and quite frankly, sort of gross. There were also coffee grounds in a bowl sitting on the sink that hadn’t been disposed of before our arrival, so I’m not sure what the situation was. We requested a late checkout by message over 24 hours prior to our departure and never received a response either way. There are no “frills” that you may have seen in other airbnbs - no extra pillows (in case one per person isn’t ideal), kleenex, or guide booklet with local favorites or recommendations.
Lastly, I can not emphasize exactly how close the toilet is to the bed. It is described in the listing accurately and the other comments mention it, but if you’re traveling with another person you will hear and smell it all as there is no door to separate the two but just a shower curtain.
Overall, Bret got us in to the location early and promptly and provided a centrally located stay with an accurate description, but I would not choose it again.
