"Room is a great size, beds were comfy, renovated bathrooms and excellent appliances. The managers were great to deal with, friendly and not imposing. Only downside was the ac in the main bedroom has an issue, it might need to be regassed. We would come back but possibly to a lower level apartment as tackling 3 flights of stairs anytime you wanted to head out does not suit everyone ☺️ It wasn’t a deal breaker for us but I can imagine it wouldn’t suit some guests."
