PROs: dealing with the company, securing codes/materials, location, wifi worked as advertised, updated shower
CONs: First and foremost, the room is dingy and dated. Numerous and very noticeable stains on the carpet in and around the kitchen. Big spots, too. Needs steam cleaning or be replaced. Wine glasses grimy & smelled of stale wine. Someone had simply rinsed the glasses with water and stuck them in the cabinet. The rest of the kitchen was fairly good, though very old and dated. We found a pair of sneakers under the coffee table. Obviously, no one had thoroughly vacuumed.
Wallpaper was hanging off the wall in a places, most noticeably upstairs by the big jetted tub. Windows hadn't been cleaned as there were large smudges, especially on the sliding door to the small balcony. Cushions on the balcony chairs are grimy. There is a working ceiling fan on the balcony, but it's in severe need of cleaning--lots of grime, dirt, and cobwebs.
As for decor, it appears the dry goods and furniture are original to the apartment--nothing before 1980 it would seem. The sheets on the bed were clean, but they were pilled, as if my grandmother had pulled them out of her downstairs linen closet. I will say the bed was comfortable. Lots of plastic plants.
The jetted tub--which sits in the master bedroom itself--looks like it came straight from a Las Vegas high-roller's room. . .from the 80s. Still, it had plentiful hot water and appeared clean. The heat from the lights in the bathroom--yikes!
Briefly, this room is fine if cleanliness or modern decor isn't a big deal to you, as this isn't a luxurious room nor a particularly clean one. Location good but bar/restaurant sits right beneath you, so it gets loud. We knew that going in, so not a knock--just be aware.
