The owner has done a great job making it updated and comfortable. Nice details like gift chocolates at check in. As other reviewers have mentioned, it’s in what looks like dodgy surroundings and there is a smoke and weed smell in the apartment from other tenants. We were going to a concert and only stayed there late nights s overnight so it didn’t bother us, but this could be a big challenge for a very sensitive person. The neighbors and setting were fine, but some may not feel totally comfortable. The owner was very responsive to my texts. ##### Eric A. Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### dan k. 21 Mar 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awful place The place was terrible. The online pictures highlight the inside but do not convey the overwhelming stench of weed. My eyes and lungs burned for a solid 24 hours after leaving. The location is above section 8 housing and really is not depicted in any way, shape or form in the online process. There was a ripped couch, dripping shower, and the exterior neighbors had garbage bags lined up next door to boot. We left and pushed for a refund from vrbo. ##### dan k. Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Linda L. 27 Jun 2024 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy #### Pot and pitbull Sketchy exterior, nice interior. The apartment smelled strongly of marijuana due to neighbors. One neighbor, nice guy, has two pits one of which unexpectedly came after us. There was only one lock on the door. The designated parking space was taken which made luggage loading and unloading difficult and confusing with the potential threat of vehicle being towed. ##### Linda L.

The ice maker didn’t work and had to fight wasp on back patio. Overall stay I rate a 4 cause all amenities were available (besides ice maker). ##### Katina P.
