The apartment is functional, but no effort was made to make it comfortable. The pictures posted aren't accurate. The couch is old, lumpy, and dirty. No rugs, no pillows, just an old coffee table.There were a lot of little annoyances, no toilet paper, broken toilet paper holder, the sheets and towels seemed clean, but were all stained and old.The rug in the bathroom was gross, stained, old, and dirty. The bathtub doesn't drain so you're standing in water.Unfortunately there's zero sound barrier. You will hear everything happening in the duplex next door, I do mean everything!!! It was extremely difficult to sleep The absolute worst part is the neighbors keep a Pitbull in a tiny, dirty, feces filled kennel outside, which is just feet away from the property. As expected he barks non stop when he's out there, which can be all hours or the day or night. The property owner may not have any control over the situation, but it's still awful for guests. It's both disgusting to witness, but also incredibly frustrating to listen to. There's no peace or quiet! Overall it's just glaringly obvious the owners do not care!Because the apartment is basically functional with a kitchen, washer, dryer, and workspace I didn't give it one star, but cannot recommend staying there. It's maybe just above a cheap motel.
