music row stay

full kitchen washing facilities convenient location
the apartment had a full kitchen and washing facilities, perfect for a longer visit. its location near music row gave easy access to bars, a short uber ride to broadway was also convenient. i appreciated the spaciousness and cleanliness of the apartment, it had all needed amenities.
The noise from the street was constant. Curtains did not fully block the light. i found it difficult to sleep well without earplugs and an eye mask

dusty carpeting poor customer service
the apartment size was acceptable for my needs.
The hallway carpeting smelled a bit dusty and felt gloomy (i guess it's an old building). the unit itself seemed a bit bare. The kitchen really needed more useful items. also, the customer service wasn't great, since they didn't give us the room we had originally booked and had to find another one.

this place offers actual apartments instead of just hotel rooms. i booked an extra night because i enjoyed the stay (it was a really nice surprise). the proximity to broadway and downtown is good, and i could easily walk to grocery stores, restaurants, and bars. the location is far enough from the party areas, so nights were generally quiet.

The unit was a one bedroom apartment. It was very clean and had everything I needed. The hotel is within walking distance. All the staff was friendly and eager to help.
The look of the apartment was a little tired. A coat of paint would help. The keypads are very hard to read for the building, elevator, and room. I would not hesitate to stay again.
