Barsala was a responsive host. The studio was as described except for a few minor things. One of the cabinets in the kitchenette was broken. The stovetop, microwave and one electrical outlet in the bathroom were on the same breaker and couldn’t all be on at the same time. So the microwave was not functional through my stay. Barsala was however accommodating and the on-site manager offered to move me to another room.
Other issues out of their control included loud neighbors and frequent break ins around the building which left me feeling a little uneasy.
The location is the real star of this place. It’s in the Pearl district where all of the good restaurants and bars are located along with shopping. It’s so walkable! That was the main reason I chose this place.
