Host was very clear about the check in process and had an easy to understand explanation for property rules once inside. Simple place to stay when attending an event at UBS arena; about a 15 minute drive from the venue.

Great Property

Location was perfect for us. The apartment was clean and Keith provided everything needed, towels, soap, kitchen had everything if I had to cook (which I didn’t). My husband is 6’2” so the only improvement would say is the bit bigger bed, but it was comfy.

The apartment was as advertised, however, I would recommend a bigger bed with a better mattress. Secondly the apartment needs two new televisions sets. The ones in there have dark spots where it would be hard to see faces or color of clothing being worn on the screen. only in well lit screens was everything viewable. With these adjustments, I would have no problem staying here again.

Enjoyed the property. My recommendation is to make listing clear that parking is on the street. It is misleading to state that there is on-site parking when in actuality parking is only on the street. Also, in the check -in instructions, it would have been helpful to be told that parking is on the street. A suggestion: to have a liquid measuring cup and dry measuring cups. A comment: the door handle to enter the apartment was not screwed on tight. It fell and hubby couldn’t screw it back on tightly because he did not have a screwdriver.
