The neighborhood very quiet for the most part except one motorist or fast car driver constantly exercising his engine at night, overall family friendly neighborhood.
Parking on premises if you were to have a car during your stay.
Laundry on premises. My entire 2 1/2 weeks stay, I only used it once. Not sure of the traffic between other guests and tenants.
Bathroom: Take all your items to your room because if left out, someone will use them. Experience varies between the other guest you sharing with. For 10$ cleaning fee, I was not expecting it to be cleaned. Therefore, if your stay is longer than the other guests, you will be cleaning after them. Even during the stay, I constantly cleaned the toilet and trash after the other guest, constantly flushed his left over feces in the toilet. Matured guest, less issues. younger ones, most issues. The big downside.
Do not leave the toilet paper giving by the hosts in the bathroom, I made the mistake of doing that, and once it was done because it was shared by me n other guests, I was told I was given enough paper for my stay. I had to explain to get another. Ladies with menstrual cycles, buy your own toilet paper
Room: Now, the first room I was placed in, the King size bed was very comfortable and so were the sheets. The room had blackout curtains, the entire room was very cozy.
I was then moved to a different room to accommodate a very nice couple who were going to stay there, that bed n sheets not so comfortable. Very bright room and vibrates whenever the garage opens and closes. For early birds like myself, this wouldn't be much of an issue, but on a day you would want to relax and be cozy, that room isn't ideal for that.
Kitchen: It's great that you can cook your meals there which I truly appreciated it. The stove works great, cooks fast. The fridge not reliable. Not sure what the issue maybe, but I lost items in the freezer because it occasionally stopped working for days. It was pretty much my lost. Another issue I encountered, was my bananas being taken without asking even when I expressed, I must eat one per day to level up my potassium (medical reason) and paid delivery fee to deliver my items because I did not have my car with me. The rule is to not bring food in ur room and fruits bring fruit flies n them little things bite, so I kept them in the Kitchen, I was side eyed because I placed a note on my banana 3days b4 I left.
Overall, the stay felt like home for the most part. I never sat in any of the two living rooms but they look comfortable. Never watched TV but I believe one can. There's a tenant there who is extremely nice and very helpful. His kids are very polite and sweet. I would definitely recommend Josephine place for short stays and if you have a car only for longer stays. It's more than 30 minutes away from DFW airport. Not close to Downtown Fort Worth either.
