Our apartment was comfy and clean, although the lack of bedroom air conditioning was a bit of a drawback. The location was fantastic, though; easy walking distance to everything! The staff were super friendly and helpful too!

The apartment itself was nice and seemed clean initially. However, there wasn't air conditioning in the bedrooms, only the living area, which was a bit of a bummer.
