Great location, but the stay was a little disappointing. They said there was only a portable AC, but I didn't expect it to be that bad. It just couldn't cool down the whole studio. Kitchen stayed warm, bathroom super hot, and we didn't even cook or use the stove. So that wasn't it. There were two fans, but both were really dusty, and one was super weak even on full power. The studio also had this musty smell, like it had been closed up for a while without enough fresh air. They said supplies were limited, and I got that, but it was more like almost nothing. There was only one roll of toilet paper already started, looked like it got wet and dried. No extra rolls, no paper towels, dish towels, or trash bags. We actually had to use grocery bags for the trash. The kitchen was also really limited, basically to 2 units of each item (silverware and plates)thanks for hosting. The place has a lot of potential, but a few things could be improved. The portable AC doesn't cool the whole studio, especially the kitchen and bathroom, so better cooling would help a lot. The fans need cleaning, and the weaker one probably needs to be replaced. Also, adding a few more basics would really improve the stay, like extra toilet paper, paper towels, dish towels, and trash bags. Some extra plates, forks, and kitchen utensils would also help, even if the place is just for two people. More than two towels would be nice, too, since there's no washer or dryer. I think those are all easy fixes, and the . I know it's for two people, but sometimes you need more than one plate or fork, even for a simple meal. And we only got two towels for two people for the whole stay, with no washer or dryer. I appreciate they mentioned the AC and limited supplies, but there's a difference between limited and no basics. Overall, the location was the best thing, but the heat, musty smell, dusty fans, and missing basics made it less comfortable than expected. With a few simple fixes, it could be a much better stay.

I had read a few previous reviews so I was aware of the spots in the suite where I’d have to pay attention to step up or step down but all was good. The location is very close to downtown. I’ll say somewhat walkable, but not if you’re going “out.” I enjoyed having a full private suite, it was worth what I paid for it and I’ve saved it to my list of favorites because I’m always on the go.
