Needle's Edge - 99 Walkscore!

The carpet was very dirty.

Mattress wasn't comfortable and the portable AC is very noisy in the bedroom

The property is in a great location. The check in process of having a specific time to meet a person to obtain entry was frustrating.Finding parking to be able to meet the “check in” person is nearly impossible. I could have easily entered the building at any time when other tenants entered, but there was a fine if you did. Thankfully there were 2 of us and my husband could just keep circling the block until I came back out with key fob and parking pass for the garage. I have never encountered such specific rules from a property. We were afraid to use the pool for fear of “not showering properly” and receiving a fine. The weather during our stay had temperatures in the upper 80’s.The apartment gets all the west sun in the afternoon and really heats up. The apartment AC is a stand alone floor unit that is vented through the bedroom window, so no way to open bedroom window. The AC only cools the bedroom. There is no TV in the bedroom. The living room has very sparse furnishings, a chair and a broken couch, neither are for comfort. The washer and dryer in the unit was a big plus as we were at the end of our 2 week west coast vacation. Check out came with another round of emails with rules and potential fines. Check out is ridiculous. They want the keys, fob, and parking pass left on the counter and then take a picture and send it to them. I recommend pulling your car out of garage first. This was our 6th accommodation of the 14 day trip and our least favorite.

Great proximity to desired activity. Though without a car this trip, will definitely consider when driving

Checking in was a nightmare, first you have to upload a picture of your passport, a headshot, a picture of your credit card, authorize your credit card, etc. Then the day of arrival, we received an email saying we had to schedule an exact time of arrival with a greeter. When our plans changed and we tried to update this, they gave us a hard time (good luck if you're flight is delayed) and there is the threat of a fine, if you are late. There are also threats of fines if you don't take a shower before going in the pool, or you don't watch the garage door go down. You have to watch it go down so you don't let any tweekers people in, there are a lot in this area and they are very active, especially at night. There are a lot of rules, I mean a lot! We were like afraid to use anything because we didn't want fines. They charge a mandatory cleaning fee, but there was a used bandaid on the bathroom floor. They want you to go barefoot inside but the carpets are all stained. Overall, for the price, just go to a hotel, it'll be a much more inviting stay.

This by far is the way to go! Why stay in a room when you can have everything as if you are at home! Note: When you check out, you are asked to leave parking pass & keys w/fob on the kitchen counter…..So FIRST Take car out of garage and then simply ask for an access code to the elevator from your host. AND YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY.

The accommodations were fantastic, I wish I could've stayed longer. The only criticism I have is about the communication between parties. I felt like there was information I was supposed to receive sooner that made the check in process a little more tedious but other than that, all good!

I enjoyed everything about it, except it would’ve been nice to have a tv in the bedroom instead of the living room.

Vince, our host, was super quick to respond to our questions & concerns making the stay
