Other Things to Note:
We want to ensure your stay feels like home, so please take note of the following guidelines:
1. Please be considerate of other tenants by keeping noise levels low, particularly during quiet hours.
2. For certain reservations, additional screening, a government-issued ID, and a security deposit may be required.
3. If any issues arise during your stay, don’t hesitate to reach out so we can address them promptly.
4. To enhance your comfort, air conditioning units are installed during the summer months. As cooler weather arrives, the units are removed to promote energy efficiency.
5. Hot Water System: The property uses a boiler system that heats water on demand. Hot water may take a moment to reach full temperature during high usage or colder weather. For safety, the boiler may reset temporarily if irregularities occur.
6. Heating System: The heating operates automatically, activating below 68°F and cycling off when the set temperature is reached. Radiators lack individual controls, so heat output can't be adjusted manually. As outdoor temperatures drop, the boiler runs more frequently to maintain indoor comfort.
Thank you for choosing our apartment for your stay. We hope you have a wonderful visit and enjoy your time here!
