Easy check in, everything was clean, kitchen fully stocked for whatever we might need, great outdoor space for our dogs, location is central to everything we needed. Only thing we couldn’t figure out is it looked like a previous customer left their personal shampoo/conditioner there and the hotel left it for our use.

I thought the unit was nice however there were some cleanliness issues, staining/what looked like mold on the shower curtain, and the towels were really flimsy and kinda cheap. I feel like with a few updates it could be even nicer but it was a fine place for a few days. Definitely a good location and was quiet.

The building hard to find. There is brewery signage. There were people kissing in the parking lot since the bar closed. Small parking lot not marked well. The inside looks as if all the furniture and “art” on the was came from a rummage sale. The couch was uncomfortable, the end tables were in horrible shape with large stains. The walls were all scuffed and missing paint. The washcloth in the bathroom looked as if had be dried over the towels. The shampoo, conditioner and body soap were all half empty random bottles. I did not take a shower. The tv were good albeit crooked. The bed was so low to the ground it was hard to get in and out of and I am a short female. It felt as if it was an abandoned door room. I do recommend this as a place to stay.

I was in apt 102 and the door to the bathroom facing the kitchen got jammed and I couldn’t open it when I was inside. I thought the second door was just a closet lol but luckily it led to the bedroom and I could leave. Also I felt like the booking process could have been clearer about filling out the form in order to be sent access codes.

Spacious apartment but housekeeping needs work

The apartment has an "industrial" decor. The floor is cement (and cold) and the rooms are very darkly decorated. It had a man-cave feel to it. It was definitely not the cleanest, as hair was in the bathroom in the tub and on the washer/dryer. The floor was so sticky we had to wash our shoes after we left. The bed was extremely comfortable and the apartment is spacious with huge TVs in the living and bedrooms. Smoke detectors were going off in multiple apartments on our floor until midnight - this was unfortunate!

I had a great experience here. Check-in was quick and easy through my phone, and parking was simple with a charging station available. The room was very clean and well-maintained, with a fully equipped kitchen and an in-unit laundry room. The bed was extremely comfortable, the sheets were soft, and the mix of firm and soft pillows made for a great night’s sleep. Temperature control worked perfectly, heating and cooling quickly when needed. The location was also convenient, with several stores and restaurants within walking distance. The building felt secure and quiet, and the staff were very responsive through text and checking in to make sure everything was going well. My only complaint was the bathroom. There was little to no body wash left, and it looked like an extra bottle from a previous guest had been left behind, so I bought my own. The towels were also on the cheaper side. I also noticed the vending machine only had beverages and needed a restock. Overall, the stay was absolutely worth the price. Better quality than other similar places I’ve stayed at. I’d definitely book again... Just bringing my own towels next time 😉.

Check-in is definitely at 3pm, just like they say! I arrived a little early and found that the code didn’t work until the clock struck three. Totally on me—I should’ve reached out ahead of time. Honestly, it gave me a chance to unwind for a bit while I sat in my car, which was kind of nice. The apartment itself is absolutely lovely! The space is full of charm, the bed was super comfy, and the windows let in the most beautiful light. It felt like a little retreat. There were just a few small things I noticed—a lot of crumbs on the coffee table from previous guests, no washcloths that I could find, a tiny stain on the sheets that looked like spaghetti (which, if it was spaghetti, sounds like a good time to me!), the wrong kind of coffee filters for the machine (it uses #4 cone filters), and the pull chain on the bedside lamp is missing. But truly, those are minor details compared to the overall experience. The building is so unique, the AC kept everything perfectly cool, and having a brewery literally 11 steps from the room was *chef's kiss*. The location is amazing, too. I’d happily stay here again and look forward to it! omg - I forgot mention THERE'S A CEILING FAN!!! Bonus points right thur.
