We really liked the property, and would have loved to give the property 5 stars, just couldn’t.
We were visiting our daughters (@ SPU) for Spring Break.
Pros:
- Close to campus
- Modern feel and love all the light in the top two stories
- Bed comfy and had options for various types of pillows
- Kitchen had most everything we needed (better large knives for cutting would be good)
- Entry instructions were easy, no problems finding the property/access, parking is on street, but never had a problem
- Fun rooftop area with views
Cons:
- When we rent, we always make sure there is a “no pets policy” as my wife is really allergic to cats/dogs. This property definitely has a cat in the house and my wife immediately had a reaction, then we found the “cat tower toy”. After a trip to the pharmacy, some open windows, and some constant wheezing, we made do.
- Window shades were not only “tricky” (notes are all over the house how to be careful with the blinds), but the main bedroom upstairs had a whole section that didn’t work. We brought eye masks for sleeping so it wasn’t a huge problem
- I sent a note to the property manager after the first night to inform them of the broken shades and the cat allergies. No response.
We really wanted to give this a 5, landed on a 4, could have been a 3 - communication is important.
Highly, highly recommend the owner publicize that a cat is in this property.
Thanks.
