Everything was great- we were granted a late checkout which was much appreciated but when we got back to the room for a quick shower before departure, the water was turned off which was a bit inconvenient. We were also not able to wipe down counters or start the dishwasher as requested

Nice stay
The unit was nice and accommodated us well. It had great location, and was generally as described.That said, there were one or two minor things that are opportunities:The bureau for storing clothes appeared to be an old entertainment center and is very large. The dining table for this one room efficiency (that would be a stretch to house any more than the two of us) was also large and they were right next to each other such that you could not open the doors to the bureau when standing in front of it - and you could not get in front of it when the doors were open... to us - a smaller bureau or a smaller table (or both) would have been fine.Also the position of the murphy bed was such that - when down for sleeping it pretty much cut off access to the bathroom - making it challenging for whoever might occupy the right half of the bed.We also felt that - while the kitchen was nice - it lacked a few basic amenities like Salt and Pepper, Olive Oil, etc...These would have been nice provisions considering the price of the unit...Still a comfortable stay and a nice unit...

Top location, but ...
Positive: Location in the middle of the River Run village. Price was reasonable. Equipment and amenities were good.Negative: 1. Check In process - email with instructions was only sent on the day of arrival, the Lockbox was difficult to find in the Lockbox cabinet and the provided lockbox code was wrong. We had to contact an after hour emergency line and wait for their response.2. Bed situation: The main bed was a queen size murphy bed. Pulled-down you had to step over the metal frame and matress at the corner of the bed to get to the bathroom. Furthermore it was squeeking with every move, which made it more or less impossible to sleep with 2 persons in the bed. I decided to take the sleeper sofa and found a note inside, not to use it, but instead to use an inflatable air matress to be found in the closet. I did not do that and slept on the sofa without unfolding it. 3. Elevator: One of the two elevators was not working and the other one was having technical problems and wasn't enough around the peak times.

Cozy studio
The apartment was nice, clean and warm. The price was more than reasonable. Having a locker was a plus. Locations is on a walking distance to the gondola which is a plus too. Highly recommend the place for a couple but it is roomy so can accommodate up to 4 people well.
