This is an old building, clean, and close to the bus and train station. The kitchen has a gas stove with no pilot and could probably use a little upgrade, The living/dining room is well decorated and comfortable. The bedroom floor creaks when you step on it, making it very difficult to go to the bathroom unnoticed. Finally, our life would have been much easier if we would have been given the access code to the apartment more than just one hour before check in.

Roomy rental that was quite nice
We really liked this unit. The floors could use replacing, but everything else was good. The instructions for the appliances were missing but I got good information from the owners. Everything was going really well until the last day when we could not get into the unit; the buzzer wouldn't work. We send several messages but got no help. Someone leaving the building let us in, but then we didn't dare leave for dinner since we might not get in again. The instructions for originally getting into the unit were not easy. Without internet, we had to rely on our memories and had trouble finding the lock box. This process could be made easier.

Great stay
Stayed for 22 nights. Great layout and size. A quiet location walkable distance to the marina, historical sites, and the mall. Has all the amenities you will need and the internet workes great when its time to stream a movie. Would stay there again.
