4/10 Fair

Could have been great but wasn’t
Theoretically, this location is wonderful. You’re in the center of everything. Unfortunately you are also right next to an abandoned park where people who appear to be homeless congregate. I read this in the reviews and thought that the reviewers were just being biased towards homeless folks who generally keep to themselves. However we saw someone smoking crack 3 times. Once he approached us to tell us that crack is legal and we shouldn’t call the cops. It was incredibly threatening. Those folks were often drinking, throwing things and exhibiting erratic behavior which made coming back to the apartment a source of anxiety rather than comfort. Unfortunately this isn’t something the company can control but you should be aware when booking.
Additionally, there are a few things the company could improve. The apartment is cleaned basically but had plenty of cobwebs in corners and crumbs(?) under furniture. It could use a regular deep cleaning. Lastly, the furnishings are all conversion furniture so they are not comfortable. The mattress on the main bed is a Murphy bed and is very thin. The pictures made me think it was a permanent bed so be warned and adjust expectations accordingly.
On the plus side the company was very easy to communicate with and prompt when getting back to me. I liked the people i met and wish I could leave a better review.
