Great Place in a Great Spot
Absolutely wonderful spot in the heart of downtown. We walked to a restaurant every night ton of options within a 10 minute walking radius.Very clean apartment that’s deceivingly large. Had two little issues with the WiFi and ceiling fans but the host had a tech out for the WiFi the next day which was resolved. They also had a handyman out for the fans, though they couldn’t get it fixed right away the AC worked great! (To accommodate me who can hardly sleep with out a fan).With all that being said; the host was super helpful in wanting to resolve the issues promptly. Had a great time!
