Gut: Sauberkeit
Converted Single Car Garage, but Nice
This unit is a converted garage of a larger vintage house that has also been divided into rental units. As of February 2020, the conversion is an older one, with loose floor tiles and aging furniture. One of the other units was being updated during my stay, so I expect this one will be soon as well. Let me start by saying the unit is perfectly functional if a little worn, and grounds and amenities of the building at large are excellent. It is smaller than it appears in the photos, especially the bathroom which is so small that a person larger than myself would not be able to us it (I'm 5'10 225). The size of the bathroom is the only real limiting factor for the unit. The kitchen is well equipped. There were issues with the dish TV service while I was there, but I expect they'll be worked out soon enough. One gripe is the unit faces the street and has a large picture window that looks onto the one and only parking space that the the entire building has. This means you get a nice view of the car that belongs to unit B (not yours). At night, this can be kinda crazy because you get the headlights of the parking car directly into your living room. I had the roll shade closed most of the time for that reason which is too bad because that made the unit darker than it needs to be. There isn't another window treatment on that window. It really needs some privacy curtains that would still allow light to enter, but not put you on display for the neighborhood. Perhas the best feature of the Unit is Ozzy, the manager. He was VERY helpful with my requests for help and is there tending to the units almost every day. You can tell he takes great pride in his building.
