I really would've loved to write a positive review, but feel I have a responsibility to give all of the facts and let people make an informed decision.
The Good... the location is good and the bartenders at the cafe/bar below the apartment are very friendly and accommodating. A/C is very powerful.
The Bad... apartment is not well maintained. Doorknobs feel off in our hand, lights and lamps don't work, water pressure in shower is very, very bad, cockroach was friendly, but unwelcome visitor, it's also super noisy on St Claude Ave at night... vehicles drag racing and playing music so loud it literally shook every window in the place, etc
The ugly...I love unique properties and would gladly choose charm and personality over looks and neatness, but this was too much. It is more like staying at a boy's apartment in college than it appears online.
Great people, but need to give place some TLC.
