Mark is a nice guy, but I was disappointed with the place overall. The apartment is attached to the garage and does feel like a room in a garage. The one window is not very thick, so I heard outside noise clearly, and the place itself doesn't seem to be very well insulated. I didn't use the window AC because it had a musty odor. We had a few cold nights and there was one small and old space heater that did not do a very good job of warming the place. It also tripped the breaker almost every time I used it. Mark told me later it could only be supported by one outlet near the window, located far from the bathroom. There is a heater switch in the bathroom that did not work, so it was a little chilling getting out of the shower. On one occasion I didn't have hot water because of a malfunction with the water heater. I also noticed quite a bit of mold growing on the shower curtain, but I notified Mark and he replaced it.
The neighbor seemed ok, but I heard gunshots on several nights. There also seemed to be a rodent scurrying and scratching on the other side of the ceiling above the bed.
The other downfall is that the laundry room is adjacent to the apartment. You actually have to walk through there to access the studio. On more than one occasion, someone was in there around midnight doing laundry.
The listing says new furniture, and that may be the case, but the mattress was not level. It was a little weird and slanted down slightly to one side. Also, there was a slight dusty/musty odor that seemed to come from the carpet, but I only smelled it when I was in bed.
I think this is an ok place for someone on a budget who needs a place to crash, but I was there several weeks on business and didn't find it ideal. I chose not to complain about certain things because I had so many issues with the place, but Mark is very accommodating and will do his best to make a guest happy.
