First, the most telling item of a review: our party would recommend this property to others and consider it for a future stay.
Pros: Loft/apartment is very clean with new, modern mid to high-end finishes. Beds and furniture were very comfortable. The unit was well equipped for our needs and while we didn't cook during our stay, it seemed the cooking essentials (likely more) were present. We didn't have a vehicle but the availability of off-street parking in the rear looked ideal for those that do have a vehicle. The downtown location was perfect for being on foot as quality food and shopping opportunities seem almost endless. The neighborhood felt very safe and walking safely at any hour didn't appear to be a problem. Everything from the communication to the check-in process with the caretakers went flawlessly. We didn't have a pressing need to contact a property manager over anything so things couldn't have gone much better.
Cons: Our list of items that could use improvement is short and did very little to take away from a great experience but I do like the give the owners/operators detailed feedback and opportunity for improvement. Although we never had any concern about our safety, the front door is light duty as it feels more like an interior than exterior door. The keyed entry dead-bolt didn't have a metal strike (or dust box) so with that being the only locking point, it wouldn't take much to force an entry. Adding a strike, a dust box, and some long screws through the frame would be good but an additional interior (non-keyed) dead bolt would be better. The included renter's literature was helpful and mentioned low water pressure and sewer issues typical with old neighborhoods and probably doesn't have an easy fix. Low water pressure doesn't make it unusable but the higher flow shower heads struggle a little. To my knowledge the literature didn't address using TVs so without already knowing how to use Apple TV, there's a learning curve. I couldn't ever figure out how to get live local channels but maybe it's there somewhere. Cable TV mentioned in the listing must be AT&T Now streamed through Apple TV but, unfortunately, the internet speeds are were relatively slow. As a result, watching live sports was sometimes a challenge. Again, these are small issues and ones we didn't give them a chance to fix during our stay but wanted to provide feedback on. Finally, the cleaning fee over 5 days is exorbitant-double, triple, or more than many.
