The room could have been cleaner. There was only the fitted sheet and a duvet on the bed. Thought it odd that there wasn’t a flat sheet on the bed. Could not control temperature in the room. Only one working elevator so checking in took longer than expected. There had also been a false fire alarm that afternoon which may have affected ability to clean thoroughly.

Washing machine and dryer have clothes/sheets in them from a previous stay. Check-in at the front desk took over 30min. WiFi credentials were incorrect both on posted signs, as well as in the messages sent by the owner.

There was no running water at all for most of our stay. No compensation was offered for this inconvenience, even when I asked. No towels at the pool, bring your own. Slow elevators, only one working for low levels. Many people coming in and out of the building without keys. Didn't feel too safe overall. Would be nice to have another lock on the door. Very disappointed with zero interest of the host to compensate us at all for the water issues. Would not recommend.

I truly wish I had seen the reviews on this property before I booked. I had the worst experience with my check-in and stay. The elevators were constantly broken and not working. Upon my check in, I had to lug my heavy suitcase up 18 flights of stairs to get to my floor. My room was still not ready at 4:55pm as the cleaner was still doing prepping my room for me. The wait times to use the elevators were long and frustrating when they were intermittently working. I had to check-in virtually online before arrival, then again in person with the security at the front desk which was quite frustrating. Lastly, the unit itself had lots of wear and stains on walls and upholstery for being a fairly new building. It didn't feel very clean. I would avoid this place at all costs.

the room wasn’t clean - leftover food in the fridge from the last client, and clothes in the washer/dryer made us question whether the place was cleaned at all. the mirror was cracked, and it was also very difficult to check into the place. it took us almost an hour to get checked in as receptionist staff were not helpful and there were many other people there too having the same difficulties.

Confusing, because we didn’t receive information before we arrived. No one at the building seem to know how to check in. It was ultimately all fine but a little confusing.

I could write a very long review for this room, but I already complained to the host and hotels.com which took my energy away. This room was not as advertised, save your money and find something else.

Terrible. When you get to the hotel to check inn tired of traveling. They send you a link to download and fill information to pay a security deposit. And that take hours instead of have someone at front desk to take care of that. Also the apartment was under construction missing wood floor etc.

One night too many. This accommodation took the cake for the dirtiest, most inconvenient and worst customer service ive ever experienced. I was almost impressed on how bad of shape this room was, but then i realized no effort was put in to maintaining it in the first place. There is so many negative things i want to say about this place, i dont know where to begin. Room: Check-in was at 16:00. Never received instruction on how to check in from the host until 17:00. They host said the room was "on the verge of being finished" when we checked in. When opening our door to the room, I was shocked to say the least. It was a total pigs pen. Bedding all over the floors, pillows from the couch on the floor, old urine from the previous guest in the toilet, old food in the counter, cigarette butts on the Patio. It looked like someone had trashed the place. Upon closer review of the property, things got worse. There were floor boards missing and loose. You could see the plywood under the hardwood. Broken mirrors, broken screens on the windows. Scratches all over the walls as well as holes and crackes in the ceiling and walls. There was red/yellow mildew in the showers. Broken toilet seats. An inch of mold and dust under appliances The place looked absolutely trashed. This wasnt a single persons doing, all this damage had happened over the course of months and multiple stays. The ad says it was a "Luxury" condo on expedia. Luxury is the last word i would use to describe this place

I would not go back - even if cheaper

I travel a lot for business and this checkin was very vague and poorly communicated. I booked via hotels then received an online check in email before I arrived. All standard stuff. I did not know when you get to the property you have to register at the security desk. They require a unit number which I did not get via previous coms. Was told I have to call hotels.com which you can’t do any more. I finally called the property management who were nice and helpful and eventually got it sorted. The front desk mess took an hour!!! Keep in mind I have just flown for 5 hours and there are tons of people moving through the security lobby. I chose this property because it looked great in the pics. The place was nice but POORLY kept and poorly cleaned. One of the beds had black hairs in the sheets. Manky. The laundry still had sheets in it and was broken. There was also a flood a while back so the wooden floor planks were buckled and sticking up (a huge tripping concern). I like staying in apartments when I travel because it gives me space BUT i would easily choose a lower brand hotel room over this place. Again the people on the phone were nice and helpful letting me check in 40 mins early but the quality control, expectations setting and communication was extremely poor.
