Overall, it’s a nice apartment but some things should be improved - largely around cleanliness.
The good:
- great balcony with really nice views
- very nice building with great amenities, all well maintained, very clean
- Great location, walkable to a grocery store, restaurants, river walk; a bus that goes to the beach (public transportation)
- overall well equipped (although rather low quality items)
- Great WiFi
The bad:
- the apartment was cleaned mostly on the surface but Inside the cabinets, drawers, shelves, desk, shower walls, windows - I had to clean myself to feel comfortable using; host did clean the windows though after asked
- Dishes left in the dishwasher, loads of laundry left in both the washer and dryer
- The bed is very uncomfortable, hurt my back
- couch had a gross smell that took days of sprays with a fabric freshener to make it better
- It’s very noisy from the train behind the building, an outdoor bar downstairs playing loud music Thu-Sun late into the night
