The unit itself was quite lovely. Super clean and inviting however we continued to be disappointed with aspects that may seem trivial but generally make our stay most enjoyable. At no point in the description of the property did it indicate that the owners lived in the unit when they weren't renting it. They locked the closet in the main bedroom and there was no place to hang our clothes. We had to hang them on doorknobs and such where clothes fell down and became wrinkled. We suspect they had a toaster but it was likely locked in one of the cabinets. Would have liked to enjoy a toasted bagel in the a.m. The notes indicate they had "basic cable" . . we wouldnt call it "basic" , it was lacking . . (7) channels in total . . . the guys were totally bummed they couldnt watch any version of sports. Yes, towels were provided as indicated but we were there for (4) days and we each had only (2) bath towels and no wash cloths. And no washer or dryer to wash the few we had.
The area . . well, we see that an earlier review, which was truly the most honest regarding the neighborhood, was taken down off the site. (only positive reviews remain . . hmmmmmm). the area is up and coming - no doubt however when I go on holiday, I dont expect to experience the harsh reality of homeless people within a block and a half from where we're staying. yes, a sad reality that homelessness exists but . .
And not the owners fault but the constant beeping of construction equipment in the parking lot was wearing. They were painting the new buildings and this went until we left on Saturday morning. This, coupled with the barking dogs three doors down, made this an unpleasant environment.
We did enjoy the outdoor patio.
We believe there should have been much more transparency in the description of the rental. We're frequent travelers and while this unit was super clean and well appointed, we would not recommend it .
