The apartment is literally in the center of Santana row - it’s very convenient and close to all dining and shopping options. Can’t beat the location if that’s what you are looking for. And you can’t hear a thing when you close the window!
Check-in was easy but host did not give info on designated parking until we asked (instruction on Airbnb is to park in the public garage). Remember to ask for designated /reserved parking for residents which is a lot easier especially if you stay during the weekends.
Generally the apartment is clean. Although we found food still left on cutting board 😭and towels still in dryer. The host did send new cutting boards right the way after we told them about the issue though. Was told that they just got a new house cleaner (who also showed up before checkout time on the day of 😅)
Overall the location is great and host is responsive. you can though find similar loft in the same location for less (found one for $100 less per day in the same building after we checked in :). I am sure there’s differences in which side the apartment is facing, appliances used, decors etc. so see what’s important to you.
