Great apartment, not for everyone

First of all, this is a really nice apartment. The owner has done a great job making it updated and comfortable. Nice details like gift chocolates at check in. As other reviewers have mentioned, it’s in what looks like dodgy surroundings and there is a smoke and weed smell in the apartment from other tenants. We were going to a concert and only stayed there late nights s overnight so it didn’t bother us, but this could be a big challenge for a very sensitive person. The neighbors and setting were fine, but some may not feel totally comfortable. The owner was very responsive to my texts.

Awful place

The place was terrible. The online pictures highlight the inside but do not convey the overwhelming stench of weed. My eyes and lungs burned for a solid 24 hours after leaving. The location is above section 8 housing and really is not depicted in any way, shape or form in the online process. There was a ripped couch, dripping shower, and the exterior neighbors had garbage bags lined up next door to boot. We left and pushed for a refund from vrbo.

Pot and pitbull

Sketchy exterior, nice interior. The apartment smelled strongly of marijuana due to neighbors. One neighbor, nice guy, has two pits one of which unexpectedly came after us. There was only one lock on the door. The designated parking space was taken which made luggage loading and unloading difficult and confusing with the potential threat of vehicle being towed.

Convenient to Carter Finley, but parking was a nightmare

Living room smelled like smoke. Master bathroom toilet did not work properly. Power to the lights and plugs in master bedroom did not work. Parking spot that was reserved for this unit was occupied when we returned; had to park on the street - this was not fault of owner, but definitely inconvenient. Floor plan and space worked for our group. We came up for the NC State football fans.

Cigarette smoke all over the house. Hairs in bed and shower. Bed unmake with hairs on some of the blankets. A/C not working properly. Owner should show exterior of the condo for rental to see the condition of the condo.

Enjoyable Stay

We were in town for parent’s weekend at NC State and this was a great place to stay. Especially considering the price of hotels were inflated. It’s a well maintained property in a quiet area and very close to campus. It was easy for us to go back and forth to see our child.

Family reunion

The place was very clean and came with all the amenities of a home away from home. We loved the 3 bedrooms and 2 baths to accommodate the 4 of us. The neighborhood was very quiet and neighbors seemed friendly. The location was minutes away from downtown and main shopping area. We loved it and definitely enjoyed our stay. We will definitely recommend and will come back.

In town for a hockey game

Check in was a breeze. Owner was proactive and very helpful. Home was neat and clean. Very close to the interstate, but not noisy. Close to downtown Raleigh and the hockey arena. Would definitely recommend for a NC State football or hockey weekend. Will try and stay again the next time we are in town.
