Sweeping Views in Bright and Spacious Loft in OTR

The property was nice and spacious, we were able to spread out and everyone had their area. The steps to the property were a bit daunting but we made it work. Outside of trying to figure out how to turn the shower on, our stay was comfortable.

Some challenges, but property manager was generally responsive -lots of stairs to the building entrance probably 30. Would like to have known for my pregnant wife and parent’s sake.-need better communication on which door to access-front door was ajar when we showed up-there was hardly any soap or toilet paper, but the manager was able to send some over that night. There was also no can opener.-future stays here will hopefully be better. Property manager noted they had some more challenging visitors recently. There were some broken blinds & broken toilet lid they were going to try to fix.-Property manager was apologetic & worked to fix what could be done during our stay.-These issues added some unexpected challenges, but otherwise it was a good enough stay.

Visit for a baseball game The check in went smoothly and the host communicated quickly with us. We were in town for a baseball game and the loft served the purpose of having a place to sleep and cook a small meal or two. It was nice having the air mattress for our daughter as the futon was extremely uncomfortable. Would have been nice to have an extra comforter for the extra bed. There were some negatives to the place…it wasn’t well cleaned; there were cob webs in multiple places, the kitchen blinds were dirty. There was only one roll of toilet paper in one of the bathrooms and only one extra roll in the other. There was no kitchen washcloth, so we had to use a bathroom one. The parking was extremely difficult as it was first come, first served and we had to park a couple blocks down when we arrived later at night. If traveling alone, this might be a problem. Overall, the neighborhood seemed safe though. This was noted in other reviews, but I’ll state it again, the loft entrance is at the top of quite a long flight of steps, some of which were narrow and uneven. If you have trouble climbing stairs, this is NOT the place for you. We also didn’t care for how secure the front door was. There was only a dead bolt that locked. The handle always turned. This seemed a little unsafe. There were no directions or guide on what to do when we checked out. It would be nice if the host had a binder or folder or something that contained information on the property and also maybe some things to do in the area.
