(458 reviews) The location was great. The condo- needs some upgrades and repair work. The main bedroom was nice enough. The bathroom- counter was cracked, ceiling obviously had some water damage and what looked like black mold. The shelf was dirty and paint peeling, cabinets were peeling. The table in the living room was cracked in a lot of places. When you spend that much money to stay somewhere you expect it to be nice. They also charged a utility fee. I have never had to pay that anywhere. It is included in the room cost. Garbage disposal was not easily accessible.
