There are some definite pluses and minuses. I would review and think carefully about staying here.
Positives:
1. the location is nice. Lots to shop for and eat, close to a train and grocery store.
2. It’s a bright and airy space. The entrances were appropriately locked making us feel safe.
Negatives:
1. The sofa bed can hardly be considered a bed. It was so uncomfortable that my husband, daughter and I all squeezed onto the regular bed and slept. For the price this the “bed” shouldn’t be considered acceptable.
2. Hosts were responsive and gracious, but the sheer amount of warnings, instructions and random fees (towels, pack and play, extra cleaning, etc.) made us feel uncomfortable and we couldn’t fully relax in the space.
3. The noise from the street was AWFUL. Single pane windows and tons of noise at ALL hours.
4. The stairs are more of a bummer than we anticipated.
5. NO laundry IN the apartment. It is one floor up and costs. Owners tell you that but it’s still not helpful
