Overall, we had a decent stay. It’s a great location near a lot of great food/bars. But a few things need to be mentioned.
1. The check-in process was extremely frustrating. I knew I was flying in earlier than check-in time, so I sent a message the day before asking about a possible early check-in and was told they would make note of my request but if they were unable to accommodate it, there was someone on site between 10 and 5 who would be happy to take my luggage until I could get checked in. So I sent a message on my way from the airport asking where I should go to drop off my luggage when I arrived. It took multiple messages using several methods of communication and about an hour and a half to get a response. There is no phone number to call and there was actually no one available on site to hold my luggage. I had to go to their other property down the block to drop it off.
2. The photos in the listing are quite deceiving. I think these photos are probably of the model unit and are not at all indicative of the actual unit we rented. We were in unit 104 and it was very dark and sparsely decorated compared with the pictures we saw that drew us to this property.
3. This place is not well-stocked AT ALL. There were 2 of us staying in the apartment for 5 days and they gave us one hotel sized shampoo/conditioner and one little hotel packet of coffee. Don’t plan on cooking anything while you are here because there isn’t a single spice or any type of kitchen basics. Not even a corkscrew! What kind of vacation rental doesn’t have a way to open a bottle of wine?!
4. If you are sensitive to light when you sleep, you should definitely plan to bring an eye mask. The only windows in the apartment are all along the bedroom wall and there are no curtains and only white transparent shades. So it gets very bright in the room early in the morning. It is also adjacent to a food truck lot so there is quite a bit of light and noise that comes into the bedroom until pretty late at night.
We were disappointed in this rental. It just wouldn’t take much to upgrade it to a pretty great place to stay.
