Location is great! ##### Jasmine K. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jan N. 17 Nov 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in #### Dirty but, good location The check in side door is in a not so safe narrow area so just a heads up if arriving at night. Once in you do get a key for the front door. A printed sheet with welcome info would be appreciated but maybe im just old school. Host was patient with me setting up internet. The room itself was...filthy. i have pics of grime, dirt, i had to go buy cleaning supplies. In over 10 days no one refilled toilet paper and i had to ask for farbage bags. Found only one cockroach but ive travelled and thats to be expected in older buildings. When i messaged host about the suite being dirty, he never respknded. Great location. Again, for folks who are nervous to travel because its short term rental, there were some folks hanging around outside smoking and being "friendly" as a person who identifies as female i am older and can handle this but some folks may feel uncomfortable. Not judging, just being honest. The maintenance person was very friendly. ##### Jan N.
