By booking this property, you are acknowledging that you have read and will abide by the Good Neighbor Policy outlined below.
GENERAL
Standard check-in time is 4 PM and check-out is 10 AM. We thank you for not smoking and not bringing any pets onto the premises.
Please ensure that the total number of guests you specify in your booking is accurate, including all infants and babies of all ages, and let us know if that changes. We will only accommodate those guests specified and no more above and beyond that number, especially due to municipal codes regarding occupancy.
NOISE & GATHERINGS
Due to the residential nature of our neighborhood and out of respect for our neighbors, we have a strict policy against social gatherings or any other loud/disruptive activities, especially after 9pm. This also means no visitors (anyone not already accounted for in the booking and already staying here) at any time. Our property manager lives nearby and he’s had to ask guests to leave in the past for throwing parties.
OCCUPANCY
Please note the maximum occupancy and number of bedrooms specified in this listing. The maximum number of guests, including all infants and children, shall not exceed this number at all times.
SAFETY
There may be cameras present on the exterior of the property. Please see the listing for further details. Cameras must remain clear and not be tampered with or blocked in any way.

The booking site does not have a mechanism for recurring charges, but as a benefit to both us and the guest, we do require a recurring cleaning of the unit to be scheduled once every 2-3 weeks at an additional cost equal to the original cleaning fee each time, and this would include cleaning of towels and linens. This is charged separately for each individual cleaning.

However, if our space is listed as not suitable for children under 12, that means we are unable to accommodate young guests for safety or comfort reasons.

Very comfortable and clean. Quiet as well. Older apartment building in central location. Security with gated, coded entry downstairs. Apartment is up one flight of stairs with screen/metal outer door with lock and and solid, coded main door. Easy entry.
Grocery stores within a couple of miles. Large CVS with many food items just a few blocks away - easy walking distance.
Apartment on 2nd floor nicely updated, with modern and attractive finishes. Comfortable, firm king size beds and many pillows to choose from. Plenty of towels plus shampoo, conditioner and shower gel.
Kitchen has all the basics for cooking/eating. We appreciated having coffee, creamer and sugar on our arrival. Also in pantry, several herbs/spices.
Large dining table seats 8. TV has many streaming options, some requiring your passcode. Roku also available. Internet/wi-fi fast and easy.
Host was very quick to respond to any inquiries.
We'd stay here again.

Great location and excellent communication.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2025
The apartment was clean, and the communication with management and the check-in process were all as expected. However, the listing misled us by describing the “property grounds” with pics of some nice outdoor areas, which were not part of this property. We had anticipated outdoor green spaces, but unfortunately, there were none. The remodel was not as high-end as advertised; the walls were thin, allowing us to hear everything outside. Additionally, the AC unit, situated on the patio right outside the main bedroom, was old and noisy, making it difficult to sleep. On the positive side, the beds were comfortable.
