This is an older apartment building that is well-maintained and secure. The apartment finishes have been freshly updated. This apartment is a good value for the budget-conscious traveler, as everything was very clean and comfortable. All the basic amenities were covered. The host was very responsive when I had questions during check in. It is nice to have secure off-street parking, just be aware it is a tight squeeze and take time and care to get in and out of the parking space in the back. Also, there is NO AC. Fans are provided, and the windows open, but this detail can be overlooked in booking. The area is ok--it's a little rough around the edges and very student-oriented. Great stay overall, but I might book in another neighborhood for my next trip based on my personal preferences.
