The space
(Pssst... Quick favor if you're thinking about booking: Please read the entire listing as it likely answers any questions you may have. Thanks!)

To access the building, we send you an email to give you, and your group, access to a simple key system using your phone. You walk up the stairs to the elevators, and take the elevator to the top floor, the 8th floor.

When you exit the elevator, you turn right and then left down the hallway to your home. When you enter the home, it opens to an open, spacious loft. There is a dining area, a kitchen, a living room, a half bathroom,and private patio for those staying on the first level. The private patio gives you a fresh feel and a cool cityscape view.

If you walk up to the 2nd floor, you will find a spacious loft with two full size beds, a huge closet, a full bathroom, and a half bathroom. This is truly a special place, and we look forward to making your stay a 5-star experience!

Q: Is the neighborhood safe?
A: Very much so. 24 hours a day.

Q: PARKING?
A: The home is very easy to get to via public transit. If you decide to drive, we recommend apps like SpotAngel or SpotHero to find free or cheap parking ($10-20 / night).

Q: Do I need to bring towels, a hair dryer, or linens?
A: Nope! we provide all these things. We also provide you with a starter pack of toilet papers.

Q: When can I check in or check out?
A: Check in is 4pm and check out is 10am. Early check ins can be difficult if there are guests who checked out same day. We ask for an early check-in, or a late-check out fee, if you request either.

Q: Luggage Drop-Off / Storage?
A: If you do not have flights that coincide with our check-in and checkout times, you may store your bags in the home for check-in starting at 1pm. For check-outs, you may keep your bags in the space until 12 noon. If these storage times do not help, you may use BagBnb to store your bags for your optimal time :)

Q: Can I come and go as I please?
A: Yes. And we wouldn't trust any listing with which this isn't the case.

Q: Is the place professionally cleaned between guests?
A: Yes, and we take pride in providing a clean home for guests.

Q: What's my total booking price?
A: We honestly have no idea. With fees included, it only shows the guest how much they pay. This figure should be present after you enter your dates. Note that, pricing varies on a daily basis, and it actually uses some crazy algorithm to adjust it automatically, so I don't actually control this.

Q: Are the beds comfortable?
A: Very. Some guests say they're the best they've ever slept on!

Overall okay

So overall this place is decent and the location is convenient, especially with a train station just down the block. There were a lot of little things that I didn't care for that despite my 5 star rating, would make me not very likely to stay here again. The good things: the ease of check in was nice. There were more than enough sleeping areas for all 5 of us. There were 1.5 baths, so the teens had room to get ready separately. There was a small selection of pots, pans, and basic dishes. The porch isn't much, but the kids enjoyed looking around, despite the lack of furniture and view. Lol. There were enough towels, bedding, complimentary toiletries, and a blow dryer in each bath (huge bonus with the dryers!). The beds were super soft - great for me, but the husband hated it. The not so great: I was cold ALL the time in the main floor of the apartment, despite turning it up to 74°. I literally had to sit around in my outside jacket and covered in my blanket to be semi-warm. The loft area was comfortable, but not a good spot for us to all relax in. The lighting wasn't good in much of the apartment, especially over the table. It was hard to see in the dining area when it was dark out. (There were skylights and windows that are good during the day) I was the only one with bluetooth access to the building & apartment, so I either had to go with anyone who went back or left, or I had to give them my phone. And all my contact information for the hosts was on my phone, so if my phone has died or I had lost it, we would have had a huge problem. Before all the fees I was quoted a price for my stay. After host & service fees (& tax), it came to an extra $110/night above the quoted price. At the price I paid I would have much preferred a hotel with daily breakfast & a pool. Especially since one of the host fees was an extra guest fee, even though we had less people than this apartment sleeps and is listed for. And we did all the requested cleaning things before we left. And the last -which is good or bad, depending on the guest- was the level of communication was actually far more than I wanted or needed. There was nothing that I needed that could be done while we were there, so there was much more communication than I wanted. I felt obligated to respond while I was trying to drive down there and then enjoy my vacation. So overall it wasn't anything huge, but definitely some important things that are helpful to know.

Great Location

The place is located in an amazing part of town. Problem is the actual space. Not that it's not good, but it needs upgrades in appearance. From the carpets to the linens, they seem very outdated. There was a ceiling shade that was broken. This location is phenomenally located but staying in the location you have to deal with hearing the plumbing all day and night. I literally heard the liquids flowing through the pipes all night long. During a shower the water turn off on it's own for like 10min. At that point i received a message from the owners through VRBO if everything was going well if there was anything I needed or they could help with. I communicated this issue to them and never got a response. I finally got a message only with my checkout proceedures and no response about the plumbing. I think the location is great and if you can look past the small superficial stuff it's a fantastic stay.
