The place was very clean and nice, and easy to check in. The problem is that you cannot run the heat and the coffee maker at the same time. I could certainly have worked around this inconvenience, if I had known about it. There was no sign on the counter, only a note about it on the 4th page of the house manual - past the page about a local gym. When I got to the page I did not read further. I got up at 3:00 am, took a shower, and turned on the coffee pot and blew the breaker to the entire place. I texted, but got no response. By 6:00 am it was cold and dark - so with wet hair I left to find some place to get ready for work. I was very disappointed that I was not made aware of this situation.

Rooms are very cute and somewhat of a modern chic. The bed sheets left us extremely itchy and there were hair entangled in it. Couldn’t get the tv to work and even tho we contacted there “highly responsive number” she never responded and butt dialed me? There was a man that was trying to look into our window and watched my family go inside( not sure if he was another guest or passing by) made the night uncomfortable knowing we are being watched. I love the amount of towels provided. Door will lock sometimes but have to fiddle with it or else it will stay unlocked.

Apartment was lovely. Only thing I would say is the bed is in the main room which has the entry door next to it - unfortunately the door’s glass window let alot of street lighting in which woke us up. A first world problem I know.

Interior was above our expectations. It would nice to have an office to leave luggage at when arriving by cruise ship before check in time. They have a place down the street, but it is a little sketchy. Pick up for the free shuttle was right outside the door, and many great food and shopping options were within walking distance. Office staff answered quickly and were helpful in helping us plan our trip, set up excursions, and check in a little early. Highly recommend!
