Four colleagues and myself (their supervisor) were in town for a conference. When we arrived, it was extremely unclear which house/building we were supposed to go in since none of them had visible street addresses and the one we stayed in was under current construction. The host finally found us as we were about to walk away and find a restaurant to sit at until we found a new place to stay. The apartment was clean and nice overall, however there was a fentanyl drug testing kit found under the decorative pillows which was concerning, and when we were outside searching for our location, there were quite a few individuals partying in various ways on a Thursday night. All of the windows were also left cracked open, which we didn’t notice, so the first night we were extremely cold and didn’t sleep due to the loud street noise. One of my colleagues stated that it sounded like our beds were in the middle of the street, and sadly closing the windows only helped minimally with the loud sounds. Lastly, there were 5 of us staying there, and there were 5 towels, however no extra blankets for the futon, so I slept with the decorative pillows and then everyone in the beds pulled their sheets and I slept with a “blanket” created of layered sheets to attempt to stay warm overnight. All-in-all I would not recommend this place other than it was cheap. I would happily pay twice as much to sleep well and feel safe.
