Lined with wood flooring and scattered with contemporary décor, this one bedroom home also has the luxury of a Jacuzzi-style bathtub with jets.

Very friendly landlord, accommodating and willing the help. Old building, may not be eligible for renovation or alterations, which may explain, why the floors and the stairwell are quite rustic |
Answer by: Apartment Owner Apr 20 2015 |
Thank you for the review, it was a pleasure to have you. The building is indeed old and it is difficult to do renovations. I am thinking of carpeting the stairs, though. |

The smoke alarm was extremely sensitive. It would go off while we were making toast, kind of annoying. I assumed it was a relatively easy thing to fix, but it seemed like you could not just replace it with batteries. |

In regards to the smoke alarm, it is sensitive and can sometimes go off when cooking but I wanted it to be quite sensitive for my guests' safety. |
