Disappointed
We have stayed here once before and this time it was disappointing because the refrigerator was not working, so I went down to the hostess and she got a nice girl, I rhink her name was Robin, she came up and verified that the fridge was not on and ingeniously unplugged it and reset the button on the wall outlet and voila it was on. She also verified the water line foot ice was connected, so we got the fridge and freezer going, but never got ice. We were there for 3 days and the fridge continued to work without ice and on our last night it stopped working again. We did Robins trick to turn it on again. Still no ice.
Additionally it appeared no dusting had recently been done throughout the apartment. I would say the kitchen and bathrooms were clean.
We enjoy not having to stay in a hotel, but this was very disappointing and if it had been like this the first time we stayed we would not have come back. I’m sorry to have to write this review. Please know we were there to visit family and so didn’t spend a lot of time in the apartment, so any over use of the fridge did not happen we simply slept and showered.

Charm and entertainment
Great little area! We meet family and we walked the quaint town and there are tons of great restaurants and breweries! Only negatives were you need fans and TV'S in both bedrooms.

This property is in an older apartment building. The apartment is a great place to stay for a weekend. my only problems where the cleanliness. we had hair in the sink that wasn’t ours. there were bugs in the shower & the shower/bathroom didn’t seem clean or sanitary. We also found crumbs & candy wrappers in the bed sheets. I would recommend this place only if it was cleaned properly or professionally like they stated.

Awesome stay, awesome host!
The apartment was great, exactly what we needed. Food and drinks were all within walking distance so that was nice. We loved the live music! It was loud but it didn't bother us one bit. We were going to be late arriving so we messaged the host and he replied really quickly. Super helpful! We definitely recommend this apartment!
It was nice to see an older building kept up. We would stay again! My only issues was the stairs, not use to that! Apartment was clean!

We have stayed here 2 times, each for about 10 days. This was so much better than a hotel - there was room to roam and it is located in the midst of an entertainment area with restaurants and live music. The facility is old but clean and appointed with enough essentials to easily get by. When we return to the area we will stay again.

Needs a large standing mirror and change your brown old towels to some white towels.
There is only one mirror in the apartment and it is the one in the bathroom at the face basin. The towels, bed sheets, and blankets need to be changed to white. There are some old brown/green towels that need to go. Also, need a large mirror too. When traveling on an airplane, you cannot pack towels. Otherwise, the location is perfect and everything was fine.
