Charming HBG Haven: Cozy 1BR Apt

This accommodation smelled terribly of cigarette smoke and marijuana. The AC thermostat was broken, could not be turned from the off position to on. The glasses in the cabinets were dirty. There were no hooks or handles in the bathroom to hang towels. The carpet going up the 2 flights of stairs was old, dirty, and stained. There is no onsite parking, it’s metered street parking. I booked 3 nights. I left after the 2nd night and paid for a different accommodation the last night because it was so terrible. The only redeeming factor is proximity to The Cork and Fork restaurant and the capital.

There was a mix up on the housekeepers part but the management responded fairly quickly. My only complaint would be the parking situation and the sofa being fabric rather than vinyl. It is party central area and the sofa soaked up all the smells. Vinyl cleans up nicely.

The location was ideal for my work event. The place itself was comfortable enough. However, as several other reviewers pointed out, the carpeting in the shared spaces of the building and inside the apartment is clearly worn, stained, and smells of smoke.

It was a convenient location and parking was accessible.

We loved the location, a block from the river walkway & great restaurants (Burger Yum & Urban Churn were favorites). Some might find 2nd street a bit gritty. The stay was spacious & well appointed. Some apartments below had smokers affecting air quality within. We would stay here again.

The host was super communicative and accomodating. The whole apartment was very clean and the water fixtures had great water pressure! Thanks for hosting!

Very nice play near many restaurants and activities.

This place is so much nicer in person and felt very comfortable. Bed was very comfy! The location is perfect, as it’s within walking distance of several restaurants and stores. Will definitely be back! Thank you so much

The bed is very comfy and the bathroom is ver nice. The Sumatra coffee for the keurig is delicious. The location in relation to the Capitol is great. The downside is the smell and general condition/feel of the rugs and space. The carpet as you enter the building is old and pretty battered and dirty looking. The intense cigarette smell when you enter the building is overwhelming. Since the same carpet that is in the building is in the apartment stairway and bedroom, there is an overall feel of somewhat dirty and cigarette smell - even though it's clean. The smell really permeates the space. I was also unaware there were two flights of stairs. Not a deal breaker by any means but with luggage, would have been good to know.

I really enjoyed my stay at the property. The rental was very cute, comfortable, had the amenities I needed, and I had no major issues during my stay. I enjoyed getting to come back to hang out after work. While I didn’t go out, there are many restaurants and bars within walking distance. Only downsides were the odor in the hallway downstairs and the blinds not being long enough to cover the windows. Would definitely book again.

Nice little spot. Really convenient for anyone needing to be in the downtown or surrounding area. Only downside is parking, as the only option is paying the meter or paying for the parking garage.

Perfect access to everything we needed and more
