Three-Bedroom Apartment with River View

What a wonderful location. We loved spending our evenings outside on the rooftop patio and listening to the water.

We were in Alma for a wedding. We stayed Friday and Saturday night and were not in the property that much. The place was very clean and welcoming. Complete transparency, the bathroom and shower were very small and outside was a little rickety. Location is walking distance to downtown Alma and close to many cafes and restaurants in neighboring towns. Only 4 stars because of the small bathroom, only one mirror in a bedroom not full length and no closets.

Alma is a cute little city with a loud train that passes through at all time of the day and night. However we have stayed here 2 years in a row and just love the views and the town.

Our stay turned out ok and glad we went; but it did have it's pro's and con's. For the pro's: It was a nice location downtown and the deck overlooked the Mississippi River. The unit was spacious and we liked the wooden floors/older home feeling. The owners supplied pretty much everything you needed! For the con's, the deck outside was not as inviting as it looks like online. While it does have a nice view, looked like it hadn't been cleaned in sometime and there were butternuts, leaves and cobwebs all over the deck. The table w/chairs looked dirty and uninviting and the chair in the corner looked like tears in it and I wouldn't have trusted sitting on it. Deck needs some TLC. The outside door to the deck is old and sags on one end so there's a 1/2"- 1" gap on one side, which could allow critters to fly in. Even if unable to replace the door, still need to find a way to close the open gaps. Our biggest con was the front of the building needs some maintenance/repairs. Some of the shingles had fallen off and boards were wide open, allowing wasps to try to get comfy. When got there, the main bedroom with king bed looked so inviting with nice view out the window, but then when seen two dead wasps on floor by windows and 2-3 live ones moving around, wasn't sure we were going to stay as I'm very uneasy around bees and my spouse is allergic to them. Rather than sleep in the main bedroom, we slept in the second bedroom with a queen bed that only had two dead wasps by the window. As the weather cools, they may not be as active, but I still expect property owners to maintain their units and keep them clean and safe for paying guests. While some of the floors did slant and were uneven in spots, it's a pretty old building, so that's to be expected. The trains going thru frequently didn't bother us either. Good if could oil the hinges on the refrigerator door and the door from the steps to the entryway so don't loudly creak would helpful. With some upkeep/maintenance, the unit could be more enjoyable!
