The studio was very cool. It was very clean and the building seemed secure. Air conditioning was loud and bed was comfortable but it squeaked. The price was great as well as the location.

Brooks and Dunn Concert

The apartment was nice and had everything we needed for our stay. However, when we checked in at the 4 pm check in time, the dishwasher was still running and there were still towels in the dryer. The other towels for our use during our stay were folded on the bed and placed in the bathroom. A couple of those towels still had hair on them so we elcted to not use those. The dishwasher running and towels in the dryer aren't a big deal to us, but also renting a place for the night shouldn't require any work from the renters side.
