Cute but not the greatest
The room was comfortable and spacious - we didn’t experience the street noise that other reviews mentioned. The room was relatively clean but not at all like the photos - completely different layout in the 1br loft than advertised. There were big stains on the couch, a painting that had fallen on the floor and not hung back up before we got there (my bf ended up fixing it because the hardware had been left in the end table drawer), and the bathroom door upstairs did not latch. You can tell that this is a long-term stay room and seems like they give it the landlord special in between stays. Really nice location and cool space which makes up for the lil things, but not worth the cost per night plus additional parking costs that were not included.
The location is perfect! There are restaurants all around plus indoor/outdoor shopping

Nice Kitchen area, but rest of 1 bedroom seemed to be minimal. Lighting in bedroom was poor and not adequate for reading. They gave you earplugs and there was white noise machine also in my room. Noise level outside varied and one night woken up by outside noise, heating fan very noisy in the apartment also. The bedroom was a few degrees warmer than the living room, so at night needed to lower the temperature.
The location was central but the entrance was on a smaller street that seemed isolated. Some nights sidewalk was blocked because people sleeping on it. When I got to place some one urinating outside the entrance, it was a delivery person.
All in all a great value for the price, a smaller street that seems less traveled but close to where I needed to be.
Fantastic location just south of City Hal and 1 block east of S. Broad St. we stayed in a large studio that had three times the space of a standard hotel room full amenities inside of the studio! Easy check-in, easy access in and out of the building! We really enjoyed the DIY aspect of the stay. Extra towels, laundry detergent, coffee, sugar, etc., all available in the lobby.
Conveniently located; very friendly and helpful staff. But facilities need upgrading: keypads of luggage storage and room did not work properly; windows single pane so I was kept awake by street noises (on the 8th floor) ; and room had scuff marks. Provided ear plugs did help but better windows would help much more
I don’t give 5-star for two reasons. 1-The sofa bed mattress is extremely uncomfortable.
2-The HVAC control it’s too complicated, difficult to get optimal temperature in all the apartment.
