I really enjoyed my stay here while I was in Dallas for a month long internship. The loft is about a 30 minute walk or a 2 min drive to Deep Ellum night life and restaurants. The loft sits above a co-working space which you have direct access to in order to get to the gym.
The apartment itself is very comfortable. The kitchen is up-to-date and very nice to cook in. There are two sets of pots and pans, dishes, plenty of glasses, and some basic kitchen utensils. The sitting space is comfortable and offered a nice space to relax in the evenings. The desk area I found to be very productive space. It’s well-lit and has a sit/stand desk with a comfortable chair. The bedroom is partitioned off to separate it from the rest of the loft space, which I really appreciated. The bed is extremely comfortable. And the bathroom is nice, while staying in the industrial feel of the apartment. The tub is big enough to take a bath and the shower gets nice and hot. There’s also some hangers present in the closet space to hang items and shelves to place folded clothes. There is no dresser or drawers in the apartment.
This unit is a corner unit and gets excellent light. It’s also catty corner to the laundry room which has at least three washer dryer units.
The building is quite interesting as it is a good workspace and you must walk through the upper level of it to get to the gym. I really enjoyed seeing artwork and the different offices as I would walk to the gym. The gym is pretty limited in terms of equipment. There is a treadmill, a rowing machine, and any kettle bell that you would want. There’s also quite a few yoga mats and stretch straps. As the gym was a selling point for me, I was a little underwhelmed. However I was still able to make do with what was offered and only once had to share the gym space with anyone.
The building is in an area that is ripe for redevelopment . Traveling as a single woman, I did not feel safe walking into town. However the building is gated and secured at night, which made me feel very safe. I never had any problems while I was staying here, but I did make it a point to drive places that otherwise I would have walked to.
My hosts were great! They were very prompt in returning my messages, helped get me items that I needed, and left very thorough check in and check out instructions.
