This is a very nice property. It has an easy to use gas fireplace which is nice, and is nicely decorated, with a comfortable bed and good closet space, but it has some problems. 1) there is no designated parking place, so if you come back late you may have to park on the street, and on busy weekends this could mean way down the street. I think this is ridiculous for a condo, where every unit should have one space assigned to it. And guests are not allowed to use the garage, despite the fact that it's empty. 2) there is another condo complex behind this one that has the brightest security lights you can imagine, so even with the blinds closed, the master bedroom is too bright. And the blinds are damaged so they don't make a very tight closure anyway. 3) the kitchen cabinets where the dishes and glasses are, are so high it's very difficult for someone of my height, 5'3" to reach. The only reason I stay here is because it is close to Hearst Castle where I work nights, so it makes for a short commute, but I won't be staying here again. This latest trip I encountered a new problem. The entry way where there are two doors to the two units was so full of some sort of overpowering laundry smell, like dryer sheets I could barely breathe. I've never experienced anything quite so intense. I couldn't find the exhaust, but for some reason it all collected in the entry. I unfortunately am sensitive to these things in that large a concentration. It didn't smell inside the unit, but was eventually apparent that it was seeping in somewhere as I started having problems even shut in the unit. Luckily I had to go to work shortly and it had dispersed by the time I returned.
