She gave me a code and it was very easy to get into the building. It was nice and easy to find as well.

There was a couple things that wasn't stuck on the dry wall so make sure to be careful.

The owner lived above the apartment but she tried her best to be quiet and the unit was clean and owner friendly.

Some things in need of repair or replacement.

The property was easy to find, wifi was strong, had a full size working fridge, coffee maker, windows were easy to open from the basement.

First I will add that I was under the impression of being alone the entire stay of our trip, this technically isn’t an apartment but a furnished basement. Upon reading other reviews the same complaints that others wrote were true for our stay. Such as noise, during our stay you would hear noise during the day and well into the night. I am aware she has a child and it’s impossible to ask the child to not make noise nor is it reasonable but if you are traveling a long distance and require some quiet, you will not get it. I have a baby and will not say that my baby didn’t make noise since some days he sleeps good and other nights not so much. So since I would hear the noise upstairs I’m pretty sure she heard my baby. Another review mentioned that they had to pay cash or Zelle which was also our case. I myself like using my credit card since I get points and also like to wait until I see the property in person to pay. Germaine did message early to let me know her form of payment I just didn’t see it in time and also added that her machine was broken which if another review is saying the same thing then there is no machine or she sees no need to fix it. Since this is a basement, you have no control of the temperature in the basement and therefore gets extremely cold. There were some thick blankets which did come in handy and we opened the windows to let some of the AC air out because even with all the vents closed it was freezing. Again I can’t ask the host to turn off the AC because upstairs where she lives it gets hot. As we were leaving another guest was literally on his way into the property which was strange for me because although we took the trash out we didn’t make the bed and put all the towels we used in the hamper so the next guest got a dirty place. The mattress also (king size bed) wasn’t the most comfortable but overall it wasn’t a bad stay. I think for more privacy I would choose a hotel but if I’m alone then I would stay here again.
