This apartment has the potential of being quite cozy. Pam was prompt with responding and made quick attempts to rectify some concerns we had. I’ve listed the pros and cons of this cute apartment:
Pros:
- Cozy apartment.
- Bed is super comfy.
- located in a trendy neighborhood.
- Nice parks within walking distance.
- TV is equipped with basic apps such as Netflix, Amazon, etc.
- No issues with bugs.
Cons:
- No Microwave. This was disappointing. We were hoping to heat up some food and didn’t want to use the oven as there was no foil readily available.
- If you’re an oversized person the bathroom will be extremely unbearable to deal with as it is extremely tiny. You cannot dress in the bathroom. You can only take care of bare necessities in there. The wash basin is literally in your face while you’re toileting. My husband joke about napping on the sink while pooping. With that said, bathtub/shower is definitely roomy to move about so the alternative is getting dressed in the bathtub. 😆
- There was a heavy odd musky odor throughout the apartment but mostly heavily centralized in the bathroom/kitchen area which was quite unpleasant. I advised Pam about it and she was very apologetic and offered to send someone over to clean again but we opted to not have her go through that as we were just staying for two nights and didn’t want to deal with the inconvenience of having to wait around for someone to clean.
- The bathroom shower/tub had some straggling hairs about, but overall with the exception of the hair situation the bathroom appeared clean and not gross.
- While the bed was super comfy, the sheets were stained and the mattress cover had a circular small dark yellow stain - but appeared overall cleaned.
I really wanted to give this potentially cozy apartment a five star, at every Airbnb I have ever stayed at I have given a five star, but because of the cleanliness and bad smell issue I gave it a three star. (Sorry, Pam.) With that said, I am open to possibly staying again at Pam’s place as she was very responsive and did her best to try to rectify the situation.
