Cute apartment, very clean and host was great. Bathroom and kitchen are a little small but worked for us. Conveniently location to Uconn, Coventry Lake, next door to bar & grill (which was great)!. Cute town with antique shops.

An unpleasant odor was immediately noticed upon entering the unit, which we couldn’t get used to and made us feel uncomfortable. Told there is an air purifier in the closet, but couldn't shake the initial uncomfortable feeling. The bathroom floor was a little dirty, and there was a dried, sticky area on the kitchen floor near the bedroom. The unit looks as pictured. A pretty lake nearby with a small beach area. Some hiking trails across the street from the property as well. Enjoyed sushi dinner at Wasabi across the street, then checked into a hotel where we felt much more comfortable for our 2-night stay.

The listing and photos were very detailed and accurately represented the space, so there were no surprises when we arrived. We were primarily there to sleep and shower while visiting campus, and it worked well for our needs. The location made it easy to get back and forth to campus, and having Bidwell Restaurant right next door was a nice bonus for grabbing a meal. Parking was convenient since it’s located behind the building. The unit was clean, we didn’t hear the neighbors, and it comfortably accommodated three family members for sleeping. We also didn’t need to communicate with the host because everything was straightforward.A few things future guests should know: the steps up to the second floor are quite steep, so keep that in mind if mobility is a concern. The kitchen and bathroom are small but completely functional. There was a musty smell that persisted throughout our two-day stay. Also, the property is on a major road, so there is continuous street noise.

Hi William, thank you for your feedback! I’m so glad you enjoyed the location and found the unit clean. I have shared your comments with my cleaning team, and they will ensure extra ventilation during future turnovers. Also, for your future reference, there is an air purifier available in the closet to keep the air fresh. We take great pride in maintaining a clean and comfortable space for all our guests. We appreciate your helpful tips for other travelers and hope to host you again!
