The Gatsby apartment in Knox/Henderson was the perfect place for my husband and me to make our home for the six weeks we spent in Dallas. So many good things to say:
* The apartment is stylish, comfortable, very clean and quiet
* The kitchen is well equipped with pots and pans, dishes, glasses, sliverware, cooking tools, spices, a Britta pitcher, a Keurig machine, coffee pods, tea pot, tea bags, olive oil, salt & pepper, disinfectant wipes, paper towels, dishwashing machine pods, dish soap and hand soap
* Washer and dryer with laundry soap pods, Clorox and stain remover
* Concierge garage pick up: tie your bag in the garbage can and leave it outside your door in the evening. No recycling pick up so we used bins in the neighborhood and once when we saw it outside of our building.
* Gatsby has a balcony that faces the inner courtyard which is nice because the building is adjacent to the Central Expressway so balconies would not be pleasant for apartments facing out. We heard no freeway noise.
* Secure, gated parking with a dedicated parking spot
* Gym with all the amenities needed that was kept clean and was never crowded
* Has a pool but we didn't use it
* Four single-speed bikes with a basket in the lobby for use as available. There was always a bike when we wanted one.
* Two blocks to the Katy Trail
* So many walkable places in the neighborhood: Chuy's, Javier's, CB2, Apple Store, Renovation Hardware, Jonathan Adler, Ka Thai, sushi, Crate & Barrel, Trader Joe's, Starbucks, Village Bakery, Toulouse, Taverna, Zazicki's...and more! Just across the expressway to shopping and eating on Henderson.
Jen and I did a lot of communicating at the time of booking and on the fly as the Dallas storms altered our original plans. She was able to accommodate early check in and additional time on the back end of the trip. She also was super responsive to some things we needed after checking in: a few lightbulbs changed and a broom & dust pan. Her typical response time to my emails was less than 10 minutes before, during and after our stay.
Jen truly is a super host and I would absolutely stay in one of her rentals again!
