Less than ideal
2/5 The good:
The place itself was nice. Comfy bed. The condo was pretty quiet which was a huge plus.
The bad:
The listing is inaccurate, as there was no toaster oven, no central heat. The baseboards didn't do much for heat, so burning a near constant fire was the trick.
I was extremely disappointed the wood wasn't stocked with a first load upon arrival, and no paper or kindling.
The hot water couldn't even fill up half the huge bathtub. Thankfully the maintenance guy did turn up the temp and that helped.
The "Smart TV" was not logged into any accounts, and when I tried to add an app to the Roku, it kept saying error. So the TV was non-functional. The listing said ground floor unit but with the parking garage below there was actually a set of stairs to climb up.
They requested dishes to be cleaned and put away, in addition to trash being taken out (but left no instructions as to where to take it) etc. I felt annoyed by this, as I'm obviously paying to stay in a "hotel" like spot so I don't have to do the cleaning.
I would likely not stay here again. The fire was the best part.
Manager's Response:
Owner's response: "Hi Breanne,
Thanks for your review - we chatted while you were staying with us, and were able to resolve many of these items for you, like sending in our maintenance person after hours to adjust the water heater temperature for you. We weren't aware of the heat issue, but in addition to the adjustable heat throughout the condo, we do also have 2 space heaters in the closet for guests to use.
Unfortunately, we can't leave our personal Roku login for privacy issues, but we do have the Roku login instructions in our guest book! There are also instructions for trash removal in the book, and dumpsters located at the end of each building outside. We are sorry that your stay wasn't up to expectations, we will make all attempts to make this information more readily available for future guests."
