Our stay had several challenges that made the experience disappointing overall.First, entering the building was very difficult. The instructions were unclear, and we did not know which lockbox contained the key fobs. It would be helpful to provide more detailed guidance on exactly which box to use. Additionally, when we arrived late in the evening due to flight delays, our door code was not working,even though access was supposed to begin at 4:00 PM. After multiple calls and messages, we were finally given a different code. This created unnecessary stress after a long day of travel.Cleanliness was a major concern. When we checked the bedding, the mattress pad was visibly dirty, with stains that appeared to include blood. Given that guests are charged a cleaning fee, items like mattress pads should be properly cleaned or replaced between stays. We were also only provided with two washcloths for a four-day stay, which is insufficient for multiple guests without time to do laundry.The kitchen appliances were not clean. The dishwasher had old food and a moldy odor, and the oven triggered smoke alarms when turned on, likely due to buildup from prior use. These are basic areas that should be thoroughly cleaned before new guests arrive.There were also issues with mold and general upkeep. The shower curtains were moldy, and the unit did not appear to be swept or maintained as well as expected.

Unfortunately first impression was a bad smell in the hall and apartment. The apartment was decorated cutely but the off white walls were dirty and stark. Their is hardly any rugs so it echoed amd felt cold inside. The beds particularly the one w a bath felt luke a sifa bed. The updated kitchen and bath were nice. The location is great. The property manager was sweet and helpful with check in. We were disappointed with the stay. It did not match the warmth of the pictures. The smell and comfirt was disgeartening. Sorry for this as i am easy going but it was tough.
