This property was within walking distance of plenty of food options, which was a great option for me and my ten-month-old while my husband was attending a conference downtown. We felt safe and secure at the property, despite the neighbors' patios being trashed with bottles, and broken patio furniture. I feel like the description of this property could use some updating, as the items below were a surprise.
1) The description says "Fully Stocked Kitchen" - the kitchen is in fact poorly stocked. There is in fact no way to bake a frozen pizza in this kitchen. Additionally, the oven has not been cleaned in quite some time, causing the smoke alarm to go off constantly. The kitchen did not even have "potholders/hot pads" to pick up hot pans from the oven.
2) The description states there is a green space on the first-floor patio, and even shows patio tables/chairs on the table. This is in fact not true. I am only upset about this as I had planned to play with my child on the large patio. However, it was/is just a concrete slab with no chairs/tables.
3) The description makes it seem as if "Street Parking" would be easily accessible if you could not fit your vehicle in the garage. However, this would in fact be difficult. Parking around the property is a 2-hour maximum if you do not have a permit. The property does not provide a visitor permit, making it quite difficult to find parking. We were able to fit a small SUV (Hyundai Tucson) in the garage, so this was not an issue for us, but could be for others. We also had several issues with the garage door being blocked by other vehicles both during the day and at night.
The property could use a little TLC - blinds were broken in several rooms, the walls were scuffed/dirty, the caulking in the shower was green/black in places, and the floors were covered in hair. A couple of doors were even missing door handles. While the location demands a premium, the condition doesn't support the rate.
