The apartment itself is clean if u drive and not to plan to walk around then it is good place. However instruction wasn’t great. My check-in time was 4:pm but i got message extra ly at 4 pm and saying that tell them 30 min before the arrival…… And no fork and spoon……………………. Other than that good place to stay

Hi Kyeongrim, thank you for the feedback. Check in instructions were sent earlier to your email, together with the contact info of the onsite supervisor . All our units have fork spoon inside, they are in one of the drawers in the kitchen :)

My partner and I have mixed feelings about this property: #1 i choose the room based on the picture and descriptions. The apartment i choose had a balcony and i choose that for specific reason. But when i arrived, i received a room without a balcony, which was a disappointment. When i asked the host about it, she said it wasn't guarantee and instantly said we couldn't smoke on the balcony, but i never said anything about smoking, so i wqs a little offended by the assumption, when i clearly smelled weed smoke coming out of other apartments. #2 on Expedia the room is reserve now pay later, thats another reason i choose the property, as soon as i confirmed my reservation the property immediately tried to charge my card the full amount. Luckily i had my card locked. I ended up contacting the property and making payments, which was kind of sketchy because i never received any type of confirmations or emails until the day before my trip. That was very stressful, especially with the way scams are taking place these days. #3 I just wish the property was more transparent, the apartment i originally saw was not the location we ended up staying in, which was another inconvenience. After all those set backs, things got a little better. Overall the room was clean, very nice, great size, clean property and friendly staff.

Hi Chloe, we're glad your experience got better. In regards with the units, not all units come with a balcony and not all units are decorated the same way, and our onsite staff did not mean to offend but they do remind all our guests that no smoking is allowed, if you were able to smell neighbors smoking it would've been nice if we were made aware so we can check and deal with the situation. Reserve now pay later just means that the hotel collects the payment and not Expedia.Our property is in one location only, 2880 and 900 S Vermont will bring you to the same place :)Thank you for the review and we're glad your stay got better :)

I loved the location. Very close to things and activities. Parking was nice, safe and secure in a parking garage. The property itself is really nice. However the hosts were anything but good. The lack of communication was appalling. I was told check in was 4 pm, no host was there to instruct us on how to check in. Texted both hosts, only one replied and she stated that the other host (Mark) would be helping us during check in. He never replied. My party and I didn’t get checked in until 5:20 pm. So we just sat in the parking lot and waited. I called him and he stated they were “sorry” and there was an emergency at “another property”. When he finally showed up, he was trying to check in a separate who was there before us. That’s totally fine, but the fact that there were multiple people waiting over an hour from the stated check in time is ridiculous and rude. There were also no clear instructions on checkout. I called both numbers and got no response from either. I had to go to their Expedia page and use the 1(800) associated with the property to finally get put through to someone. Then I had this random person named Miguel (who I guess coordinates the cleaners??) ask me when I was leaving so he could send the cleaners. Which is understandable, but if checkout is 11 AM, isn’t it safe to assume to send the cleaners at/ around 11? Then hours later, when I’m at the airport, Mark finally responds but only asking if I’ve left the property.

This was excellent value for the money- we stayed 4 nights and communication was excellent with the on- duty contact Mark. We notified when flight landed to give plenty of notice and he was there at our arrival. The beds are doubles so smaller but the extra trundle cot was great and extra blankets were readily supplied. A very well equipped exercise room with at least 8 modern cardio options with programs and extensive strength equipment. Climate is adjustable. We wish we had gone up to rooftop sooner and made more use of- it was quite amazing with various plantings, private seating sections and a couple of BBQs. Great/reasonable/central distance for various activities. Neighbourhood had noise but not sure it was any worse than many neighborhoods. A bit of a drive to decent grocery and neighbourhood a bit rundown. Very nice other tenants - no building issues with noise or smoke etc. decently equipped kitchen and new laundry set to use. Would be helpful if some more hooks/racks for coats, towels etc

Place was clean and organized. Location is perfect and was able to walk to many spots in k town. Only downside for me was the noise level as it can be noisy outside until pass midnight and I could hear the people walking above us or outside in the hallway.

Inconvenient and laborious check in process. They took photos of my drivers license and credit card on a personal cell phone. Unsanitary snack offering (cereal in a ziploc bag). Stained and thin towels. Uncomfortable beds (could feel the coils). Shower did not drain properly. AC had to be turned off to limit annoying sound. Left early and would never book here again.

Comfortable and spacious
Had a very pleasant stay at this property. It was spacious, clean and modern, felt very homely. You need to arrange to meet the host before arriving, collect the key and have a quick tour. Basic items are all included in the kitchen, which is great. WiFi was very fast too. Some nice amenities nearby, including a large Korean supermarket across the road with a cafe inside for coffee and nice items for breakfast/lunch.

The location is decent for getting to transportation but the unit itself lacked items that could have made it nicer. The coffee maker is pathetic, the beds were not comfortable and the pullout couch was like sleeping on springs without a mattress. My body still hurts. Will be seeing a physio therapist when I get home. Took 3x to get clean sheets. Never did get more pillows. The few lumpy ones we had must be 20 years old. Upon arrival unit was 80 degrees. Sparse kitchen supplies. Bring your own toilet paper unless you like prison toilet paper. Buy kleenex too. Was disappointed we had no balcony. TV was not 55 inches more like 27 inches. No TV in bedroom. Did like having a washer and dryer in the unit.

Check-in was really disorganized and it was hard to get ahold of the hosts. While the apartment was aesthetically nice and clean, it very much had the feeling of a model apartment and the beds were incredibly uncomfortable. Upon examination, the mattresses were very thin and more suitable for staging than sleeping. There was one thin blanket for each bed and the few pillows available were completely flat. Otherwise, the Korea Town neighborhood was delightful and the location is very convenient for taking inexpensive Lyft or Uber rides to nearby attractions.

Unit was good overall. The location was central to the things we were doing. Glad to have parking but found it a little pricey at $20US/night. Kitchen was nice and liked having two separate bedrooms. The bathroom was a good size with decent counter space. The bed linens were old and pilling, and the bath towels were very small and poor quality. Would suggest these be upgraded. Also found the pillows to be either very flat or lumpy - these could also use an upgrade. Appreciated having a few rolls of toilet paper, but pick up some facial tissue and a roll of paper towel as these are not provided. Check in and out was very easy.

A great stay for the price
The room itself was in good condition, but the building definitely has need of some updating/refurbishing. Only major issue with the room was persistent cologne smell in the kitchen/entry, not overpowering or anything, but strong. The mattress was a little hard/uncomfortable. Overall a very good stay, just a few minor inconveniences keeping it from 5-star status.
