The “dining area” is completely useless. The table blocks you from getting in and out to the bench, and the chest is so high you cannot feasibly sit there with your legs under the table. Also this unit at best fits 5 people there is bar seating, dining and a kitchen table. The kitchen was so poorly stocked. Drinkware was lacking.Additionally you hear everything from your upstairs tenants. Just with regular walking you hear it but imagine kids or teenagers running around after bedtime rattling the master bedroom fan. Our feet were also black within a few minutes after checking in. The property manager was however very responsive and had the floors cleaned and communicated with upstairs tenants for us but it didn’t change the noise. ##### Rachael S.
