There's a lot that was nice about the place. The location is solid (tons of good food within walking distance), the interior is nice with plenty of helpful amenities, and the building itself felt well secured. Was (excepting the below point) as described. The host was fairly responsive and did a good job of making us feel welcome. Largely positives across the board.
Why 3 stars then? We discovered a pest problem halfway through the stay and lost a vacation day (and a nice location/cash difference) to needing to find somewhere else to stay. The host was accommodating around adjusting our original stay and new move-out timelines. Will note that outside of the pests, the cleanliness was good. Would not expect others will run into the same problem, but would recommend checking in with the host before you book your stay.
