Liked: Location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness
Great location; shabby, ill-equipped unit
Positive features:
* terrific location, a short walk to downtown restaurants and stores;
*well-heated (and presumably cooled) unit; and
*excellent shower.
Negative shortcomings:
* Dangerous step down between bedroom and bathroom;
* unit needs paint and thorough cleaning;
*kitchen poorly-equipped, for example, only one plastic cup and an old coffee cup to drink from;
* very small bathroom with tiny sink, no toilet paper holder, no shelving, and toilet so close to wall that someone over six feet would need to sit sideways;
* no nearby overnight street parking or easily-available parking in back alley;
* need to stand on bed to reach chain for overhead light.
* sent wrong door combination; correct one sent after we left home.
We felt there was misrepresentation due to the cheerful photos which this place is anything but cheerful. There is obvious flood damage and rot right on the front door and mold everywhere. The bathroom was cramped and unclean and there was no spot to hang a towel. The bed and coverings were very old and the mattress was just so bad there aren't words. We felt very unsafe in the neighborhood especially at night when there were people running by our windows at night from the police sirens and lots of motorcycles racing down the hi-way. The people upstairs became very agitated and started yelling out of the broken window that came crashing down in the middle of the night. We had to vacate the very next day.
