Property is very well kept. One of the two elevators were not working so had to walk to the other side of the building to use the elevator. Pin to the door wasn’t working so get an old fashion metal key from the lobby. Besides that, great price for the property and enjoyed the apartment.

Nice but a few changes are needed

Let me start by saying that the hotel was located in a perfect spot as far as getting to all the fun areas such as sixth Street and Congress Avenue. That in itself is worth the money. It appears that they are transitioning from residential apartments to full-time hotel. They haven’t really gotten the hotel part down 100%. There was no Maid Service and they didn’t give enough supplies such as toilet paper, cleaning supplies, and paper towels. We loved the fact that we had our own kitchen and could make breakfast every morning without having a rush out the door, but they only gave us four plates, glasses and silverware. The code situation to get in and out of your room and to get into any of the amenities was annoying. They should definitely consider changing that to a swiping card. The terrace that is accessible was fantastic and all the look of the bike trail, which was really cool to see people going by especially at night and the skyline was gorgeous.
