I'm a travel nurse that works night shift and this apartment was perfect. It was quiet and the bed was very comfortable. One of the bedrooms does not have windows which is perfect for a day sleeper. I will definitely stay here again if available.

Cold, drafts, upset that the ringcam outside the door was taken (after they sent a message of do not remove or block the camera). Sent a message and they replied that they were charging it (would have been nice to know). They have weird lights on the smoke detectors that seem to activate when entering a room. It was very cumbersome to traverse to and from the apartment. I could go on....
