Pros:
- Excellent High-speed internet
- Convenient location
- Covered parking
- Well-equipped kitchen
- Owner accommodated early check-in
Cons:
- Musty odor throughout the apartment
- Inadequate cleaning (e.g., thick dust layer on ceiling fan)
- Bugs present in the living room
- No central air conditioning; only one wall A/C unit in the living room (with filter change indicator on)
- Insufficient cooling for the entire apartment. Bedroom lacked A/C and was uncomfortably hot
- Limited cooling options: one table fan and a noisy evaporative cooler (disruptive during office meetings)
- Two exposed electrical outlets without cover plates:
In the kitchen near the sink (safety hazard with live wires)
In the living room near the floor (hazardous for young children)
- Owner did not take immediate action when informed about safety issues
- Living room sofa bed was old, worn-out, and uncomfortable (springs and metal divider noticeable)
- Sofa bed bedding appeared unwashed
- Bath towels were extremely worn and appeared very old. We had to purchase new towels from Target
- Living room TV remotes were non-functional
- Fire TV failed to connect to the internet
- Office monitor lacked HDMI connectivity (only VGA available)
- Printer cable was missing
- Ironing board cover was stained. Iron appeared outdated
Overall, while the apartment offered some conveniences such as high-speed internet and a good location, it suffered from numerous issues related to cleanliness, comfort, and safety.
