The apartment was just like the pictures. Easy access with a coded door. I felt safe in the neighborhood. Close to shopping. They knew that given that the apartment was in a basement there would be upstairs noise so did things like leave earplugs and sound machines on the bedside tables. I learned once I was there that the owners have a broader rental business so there was little flexibility for check that I have found with the many other Airbnb stays I've had. Just wanted to check in a little early but they had to stick with their usual cleaning schedule although previous renter left a day earlier. Not a deal breaker but different than dealing with a private owner.
