Window AC units so definitely got hot since it was in the high 90s when i was there. Stairs were steep to get in. Was clean and I stayed with my dog for work and it was perfect for the few days. Host was very responsive and great! Would stay again
stephanie was an excellent host, super quick to respond and very friendly!! the place was in an excellent location, making it very convenient to walk to downtown GR in minutes! we really loved how clean the property was and how homey it felt!
This was a great place to stay especially if you’re looking to explore downtown and green spaces along the river. Just a short 10-15 min walk to downtown and easy access to public transportation. The host was also super responsive and flexible with the needs I had. I would definitely stay again!
My husband and I are traveling with our dog and spent two nights at this location in Grand Rapids. We had tickets to Rock, Roar, and Pour at the John Ball zoo, which we ex
Great location and room. Walking distance to food and coffee. Close to downtown. The only minor issue for us as 65 adults was the stairs were narrow, the old fashioned bathtub shower was a little tricky for us, and the weekend nights were a little loud due the the proximity to university.
The place was just as advertised. Very nice location for Grand Rapids and the place was very clean. Stephanie was responsive and made everything super simple. If we make it back to Grand Rapids we will definitely be staying here again!
We rented this apartment while seeing a performance at De Voss with no regrets. Great location, very clean and the host was outstanding from start to finish. Will definitely rent again. Thanks for a perfect stay Stephanie.
Nice apartment in great location. Stairs are steep but manageable - I'm an overpacker and had a bit of an issue getting the big suitcase up there! Next time smaller luggage for sure!
We had a very easy time getting in, the place was clean and bright. Both of us had to work for a bit and that was totally fine. When we had a question the host was super responsive and we had a wonderful time.
Place is very clean, nicely decorated, and close to downtown GR. An updated second floor unit in an older multi family house. Host is quick to respond to inquiries. No issues with parking on the street. Neighborhood is somewhat active day and night, but reasonably quiet.
Close enough to enjoy all the fun things we wanted to do downtown. The apartment was clean and the bed was very comfortable. We will definitely come back again!I would agree with the past comment’s cautioning about the stairs and the bathtub. The apartment is on the second floor with steep steps, and the shower requires standing inside a narrow tub which is very awkward. We came during an unseasonably warm few days in February and the apartment was very warm. We couldn’t find a thermostat to turn the heat down so we had to run the AC.
Property was nice and clean, check in was easy. Property owner was easy to get ahold of and super easy to work with. The only issues were with neighbors down the road blaring music all night and the unit was a little on the hot side. But all in all, would stay at their property again
I have now stayed here twice, it’s very lovely. Bare bones but it has the necessities. The property manager could not be more accommodating. She even added a night on for me when I unexpectedly needed to come to town early. Would definitely stay here or any of her other units.
