Great little downtown apartment. Good location for walking around downtown. A little tricky to find the parking, but a good parking spot, fit my large SUV well. The apartment was a little dirty, AC/heat vents looked moldy, windows and mirrors dirty, shower curtain and soap/shampoo dispensers haven't been cleaned in awhile. Back porch smelled like pets and cigarette smoke. These are just little things, not worth a call to get corrected and interrupt a short weekend stay.

The apartment is lovely, wonderfully decorated and perfectly located in the downtown area. We met the owner and she was lovely as she helped us get checked in and reset the locks with our preferred access code. Clean, and the kitchen is fully stocked. However, the neighbor across the stairwell, whose door is less than 3 feet from the entrance to The Nest, is a smoker and there is a constant stream of both stale and fresh cigarette smoke that seeps into The Nest. There is an air purifier going, but my husband and son both has asthma so we made the choice to leave for our health. We were sad to leave such a great location and I wish there was more that could be done to curb the smoke issue, maybe a tighter sealing door and removing that window above the bunk beds would help? Thanks.
