However the owner never hesitated to be available to help ##### shakiahraelynn Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Gwynn S. 15 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy I wish it had been clearer that we would be off the alley. We got in very late after flight delays. It was a way to go to find the place. Also, there were only used rolls of toilet paper. Full rolls would have been nice. Bottled water would have been greatly appreciated. All in all it served our purpose of a place to sleep for the night. Thank you. ##### Gwynn S.

Roomy. The outdoor area left a little to be desired but the place itself, was a treat. The host was responsive and friendly. ##### C T.

Great bathroom and wonderful king bed. Hosts were helpful and understanding. The only issue someone might have is with all the scents- diffusers- used. Otherwise it is terrific! ##### Susan M. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Katie A. 29 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious basement unit near the Mann The interior of the unit was spacious and clean. Bed was comfy and had good bedding and lots of pillows. The unit is sparsely furnished and could use a few things to make it more comfortable. Also the entrance required a walk through an alley. My husband and I are city folks so it was fine but someone not comfortable with the city might not like this. ##### Katie A. Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Erik Z. 30 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Great value Everything is as described; it is a windowless basement apartment. The entry is off of a trash-strewn alley with uneven and broken concrete paving. The listing mentioned that the unit included an iron and ironing board, which would have been useful. Apparently, the board had been broken by a previous guest. The owner was willing to provide the iron without the board, which we appreciated, but didn't suit our needs. It would have been helpful to know this ahead of time. ##### Erik Z. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Matthew 28 Apr 2025 Disliked: Communication The property itself is fine if you’re just needing a space to sleep. I had a frustrating experience after booking the reservation because I been trying to add an additional night to the reservation for a week with no response. I kept getting emails from VRBO asking me to respond with more information (how much more do you need than “I want to add an extra night?), but the email was sent from a “do not reply” address. It was past the time to cancel so I booked an extra/separate night and had to incur those additional fees. The host didn’t seem to be aware of this. So that might be a vrbo issue. The instructions said the entrance is in the back, but did not explain that to get to the back, you have to walk around the block and hike up an alley that is all gravel and rocks. I was dropped off in front with a large bag and 2 big carry-ons, and then had to take that walk with all of that. The only instructions for the lock on the door was what the code would be but not how to use the actual lock. There were gnats flying around in the bedroom. The towels were dingy. And the room itself was damp. That said, I just needed a place to sleep for 2 nights and had full days where I was away from the property, so it worked out ok. There was also a lot of heavy footsteps from the space above, but I’ve lived in basement apartments before and it comes with the territory. The host was nice and responsive once I got there and bed was comfortable. ##### Matthew Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Nancy 11 Nov 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication There was no communication from the host. ##### Nancy Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan S. 7 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Ryan S.
