The unit is a large 2-bedroom space, even though only 1 bedroom is available for occupancy. It does need a major update; as past reviewers have noted, it’s old and a bit dated. But the host has furnished it with a huge sectional sofa –big like 2 twin beds! good wifi, a huge tv, and a portable a/c. The washer and dryer are also huge and a major convenience. I did have to do a bit more cleaning in the beginning.
The neighbors are indeed nice and friendly, as past reviewers have also said. There are a lot of children in this apartment complex and they play in the parking lot; it’s like driving in a school playground. Traffic noise was minimal but sometimes, the neighbors talk outside late into the night.
Mohamud was quite gracious, generous and quick to respond with answers and when he had to troubleshoot during my stay. The previous coffee maker quit functioning on me and I requested a simple on-off replacement. He got it to me before the next morning’s coffee. He also provided an ample supply of toilet paper, paper towels, and cleaning chemicals.
The back patio is fully-fenced and private, and just sitting out there for morning coffee or afternoon read was very nice, relaxing. No screen door, though –would have been nice to air out the space without letting the bugs in.
