Excellent location! We walked to dinner/some bars and had a nice afternoon. We really appreciated the A/C unit in the bedroom and the fan downstairs, enabling us to maintain a good level of comfort despite the heat wave.
With the weather being too hot to do much else in the evening, we decided to turn on the tv and found the remote to be unresponsive. The host was quick to communicate with us about the issue, assuring that it hasn’t been a problem in the past and that it will be fixed as soon as possible. However, we eventually resorted to driving to the nearest red box to rent a movie. The DVD player worked fine without the tv remote.
The kitchen was fully stocked, and the pillows in the master bedroom were very soft. The neighbors were quiet and we felt very safe in the area. It was a bonus being able to park in the garage and avoid street parking, but it was quite a feat trying to angle our crosstrek from the narrow alley into the narrow garage. Not recommended for vehicles with any less navigable turn radius.
While the heightened cleaning fee is understandable, given the extra risk and precautions associated with the pandemic, we would have liked to see more attention to detail for the price we paid. The bathroom was a little discomforting.
All in all, this place suited our needs and kept us relatively comfortable during our stay.
