Cozy loft, cool neighborhood
We had a really great 1-week stay at this property. It was immaculately clean and tidy, and I really appreciated all of the extra little touches: vintage record player, acoustic guitar, fully stocked spice cabinet in the kitchen, space heater for extra coziness, tower fan for an extra breeze, and plenty of bathroom towels. There were also a couple of nit picky things: drain in tub was broken/does not plug (so you can only take a shower), vent/fan above stove does not work, conditioner bottle was filled with watered-down shampoo, and there was an unfortunate/minor ceiling leak the day that we left - it's an old building, these things happen! The host was kind enough to give us an extra hour to check out, since maintenance was in/out of the unit, along with a little refund for breakfast. We super appreciated it.
The only actual negative was the location accuracy of the listing. This property is a lot further south than pictured. The "What's nearby?" info on VRBO is not at all correct. It lists the convention center as a 5-min walk, when it's actually a 27-minute (largely uphill) walk. The proximity to the convention center was important to me, as I was there on business for half of my stay, so that was a bit of a let down. I communicated this to the host before our stay, who was very apologetic, but the listing still hasn't been updated to reflect it's accurate location. Just something to be aware of.
All-in-all, we really loved this loft and vibe of the neighborhood.
