Nearly perfect
The pros: This property has a luxury feel. The renovation was well done. The finishes and furniture are high-end. It was CLEAN! The location was great, right on the edge of downtown.
The cons: Turning on the shower was difficult even for my husband who is extremely handy. Stepping up into a wet clawfoot tub is not ideal for every guest. There was only a towel bar for 2 towels, so I'd say it needs a couple hooks added in the bathroom or bedrooms. Lastly, the apartment had been sprayed heavily with fabreeze air freshener, and I am chemically sensitive. I had a bad headache for the first day, and washed all of the bedding to try to get rid of the scent. Most people do not realizes that air fresheners are highly toxic. The owner was extremely rude when I asked about the source of the fragrance. At first he said there was no fragrance in the apartment. I informed him there was a plastic tower pumping out fragrance in the hallway, and a different fragrance in the apartment. He told me he is is not a doctor and that I should not have booked the apartment. (I owned a short term rental in Boston for 2 1/2 years and understand business, real estate investing, and hospitality. This is not good business and not good hospitality.)
