This was booked as a two day after cruise stay for two couples. We booked a two bedroom apt. with one bathroom. We figured for two days we could make one bathroom work. However the one bathroom was IN one of the bedrooms. So the other couple had to go through our bedroom every time they needed to use the bathroom. No!!! Just no on this super awkward layout. We found mice droppings under the kitchen sink and in a few other places. There were a couple dead bugs in the corner of one bedroom. We could not find the tv remote, moved the couch and there it was with a bunch of other crumbs and garbage. (Great vacuuming job.) The fan remote was missing the back. Replace it!! The couch was dirty and spilled on. The beds were super cheap and very uncomfortable. One of them had the legs move and bend and it shimmied around when you sat on it or rolled over. We are not big people, I can't imagine how that bed would have been if we were. The front lock to get into the main lobby entry was not locked or working our entire stay. So anyone could have walked in that building at any time. When we found mice droppings we contacted the host, who gave us a number to contact what I assume was another host....no response or follow up at all. Just sorry to hear that, call this number instead. We can't recommend a place with mice droppings, a terrible bathroom lay out for a two bedroom apt. that was dirty, had the cheapest beds you could provide and just was all around not great.

Great location in historic district. Outdoor building lock was not in service so is just open, nowhere to hang clothes but I can find but other than that it was clean and in a great location. :)Only suggestion is to tone down the automated text messages before I even checked in, I had like six text messages to sift through. I would say keep it short and simple and maybe to three messages Max before checking in

Place was clean close to places he wanted to go. Only wish it had a working elevator because it’s a struggle getting your suitcases up the stairs. Otherwise had a great stay.

The location was ok but the main reason to stay somewhere is to get a good night of sleep. With that in mind, the bed was too hard, the floors squeaked so bad in that we had to use the smaller bed in the back because it was quieter than the one up against the hallway. Also the soap dispenser in the kitchen was broken and there was only one tiny piece of soap in the bathroom. And only one washcloth. As far as parking goes, it was very hit or miss. I will not recommend this place.

Very clean and great location. Kitchen was fully stocked and had coffee (Thank You, needed the coffee). The only odd thing was the bathroom as it was off the master bedroom and as a little challenging for other guest to use at night. Overall great place, secure and safe.

We had an overall great stay. Pretty clean and nice appliances. In a nice walkable area close to restaurants and shops. The only complaints I have are regarding the noise. The walls, ceilings, and floors are incredibly thin so it’s easy to hear others within the unit and building. Secondly, the listing wasn’t clear that the third bed is just a sofa with the back laid flat. Lastly, I wish the building was a bit more accessible. Having a ramp or elevator would have been great. Other than that, it was a nice experience and I wouldn’t mind booking again :)
