Check-in was very easy with instructions provided by the host. Everything was very clear, and we were able to get into the room without any problems. The room was cute, very tidy and clean. There were thoughtful touches such as spare toothbrushes, laundry soap, and a coffee station. Although the room has great A/C and a ceiling fan, they also included a portable fan, which came in handy for more direct airflow and the white noise of a fan. There was a first aid kit in the room and a handy board with all the door codes so we wouldn’t forget them. Very few negatives, and they can’t really be helped. I’m not fond of street parking, but I didn’t experience any problems with it here. The other minor thing is there’s a dip in the floor between the living room and kitchen—it’s an older building, so it’s to be expected. It was quiet in the room, and I slept very well. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay.

I actually didn’t end up staying here because VRBO booked my stay when the property wasn’t actually active. When I arrived there were other renters there already. The owner responded immediately and put us up in a local hotel when she didn’t have to. I would try to rent from this owner again if given the opportunity due to her extremely good customer service.

I thought it was going to be hard to find parking in this area, so close to the Riverwalk, but parking was easily available to find and very close to the apartment!Probably just myself and not understanding the directions clearly at first after a long late drive, but I found the door combinations were JUST ever so slightly confusing at first when I arrived at the building. But when I read through the directions slowly, I understood them and was able to get in without an issue. The location was very nice and clean. If I was TRYING to find SOMETHING to say bad about the location, it would be the hot water/cold water temperature in the shower was the only thing that I could fault it for. It was a little hard to find a perfect temperature for the shower that wasn't a little too warm for our liking.....and even that's not really a complaint it's just the only thing I can come up with to fault the location for. Even with that being said, I would stay here again!
