Great central location! Walking distance to everything. A bit noisy into night and early morning but expected that based on reviews, especially on a weekend.
8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2025
Overall, this was a pretty good stay. Check-in was frustrating. Not only do you have to pick up the key at a separate nearby location, but when I got there the guy at the desk told me that I actually had to walk to another location a couple blocks further away! The apartment is super basic. Bathroom set-up is awkward, especially because the door on the shower room has an etched window that provides little privacy. But the location is AWESOME! Which kind of outweighs the negatives. If you don’t mind lots of noise, being right in the middle of all the action (especially in August) is a really wonderful experience.

6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
We loved the room. The views were amazing and the location was good. The couch bed was very uncomfortable and the partying in the night on Friday and Saturday night were unbearable. There was a rave at one of the bars and we had cars honking and people being rowdy from 11:00 pm-5:00 am including cars racing, motorcycles zipping up and down. We did not get to sleep much which was rough after traveling 17 hours to get there.
