Overall, the apartment was clean when we first arrived for a week-long stay. We discovered soon into our visit that the apartment is most suitable for a short-term stay of a couple of days at most. It is too small and expensive for longer-term stays given the available amenities as we describe below, especially compared to what we have been paying in other locations in the Southwest (Tucson, Sedona, Santa Fe, Taos).The apartment is not part of the Jarvis Apartments and has a separate exterior entrance; this was not made clear when we checked in, and we only found the entrance because one of us looked around.Suggested improvements:1) Add streaming services (or capacity to stream), and not just have cable TV available.2) Washer dryer is inconveniently located and is not free; laundry should be free given the rental price3) No dishwasher or garbage disposal4) Dishcloths are not as handy as sponges for washing dishes; a new sponge for each guest would be preferred5) Only one trash bag was provided for kitchen trash canGeneral challenges: No fresh air!
