Lower Your Expectations!
-The internet wifi as listed did not exist. After multiple texts with owner, finally find another network. -The house address number is not posted anywhere on the property. -Entrance opens onto a steep staircase with no landing, covered in stained carpeting. No elevator. -Dark and windowless, except for 2 windows in the back of the apt in bedrooms that look onto parking lot. -Couch stretches into enclosed space that blocks the view of the TV and rest of the room. -The automated trash can does not work, so you will have to wedge open the lid by hand. -TV was removed from the bedroom but bolts left behind. -TV in the living room does not connect to Internet; does not allow you to hook up from your own device. No antennae channels or cable. -No outdoor light so you will enter in pitch black darkness Requires flashlight to see keypad. Owner was asked 2x to fix it and did not. -No overhead lights in bedrooms and lamps were v dim. -Wish I could attach pics! -Pic shown in listing is NOT the side of bldg you will use. -Owner alerted us after we left that we left clothes behind. They were not our clothes.

Lovely apartment in stellar location!
My husband and I stayed in this apartment for 5 nights with our 1 year old daughter and a friend. The location was so nice, a quick scenic walk by the river to Front street and downtown/the beach. It feels tucked away from the liveliness of Front street and is quiet and residential even though it’s so close. It was tidy, clean and the bedrooms and bathroom are spacious. The host was very friendly and communicative and helpful! I would recommend staying here to anyone looking for all of these attributes.

We loved the location, the beds were very comfortable. Only thing that was missing was kitchen towels as there wasn’t a dish washer. Had to use the papertowels.

Good location, easy parking and walking distance to Front Street.
The location was very good. It had easy parking and was in walking distance to Front Street. This is an upstairs apartment, and the steps are quite steep. Bedrooms had wall air-conditioning units which worked great, but the living space was quite warm. Thank goodness for the fans in each room.

Great location to downtown. Clean place. Note there's no sugar or spray pam make sure you bring those kinds of items. Walls are thin. Was an issue with the mini split so we got debris on us and even after we turned it off.

Great rental in town
Good apartment in town. Close to lots of wonderful restaurants, bars, shops. Perfect accommodation with another couple, 2 good size bedrooms, kitchen with all basics, and more. As previous mentioned steep flight of stairs for entry, each bedroom has own A/c unit. Would absolutely stay again. Clean. Safe. Good location.

Cute and Perfect Location
The apartment was really cute and had everything we needed. Loved having an off street parking spot that showed us to walk to the main drag. Also, we traveled before/after and having a washer/dryer (w/detergent!) was super awesome. Would definitely stay again if back in TC.

Description is not quite accurate
The apartment is located exactly where it says in the describtion, you see a cute store front and shots of the apartment, all good. Except, there are two apartments; A and B. I suspect the one above the store front facing the street is apartment A because I did not have that view, I was in B. I did take a pic of my view but it doesn’t look like I can submit it here-a parking lot. Also, this apartment does not have central A/C, just two strips of A/C units attached to the wall over the beds in the bedrooms which makes those two rooms nice and freezing but not much in the living room. One bedroom has a nice large tv, the other one does not. So families with kids will need to have the kids take the larger room. That bed was very soft, I don’t do soft-if soft is your thing you’d do just fine. So I used the other room. The rooms have no lights on the ceiling but rather these on the night table lights that you need to walk over to the other side of the bed to turn on, not the best thing to have when you arrive in the dark and can’t find the light. Overall the location was great, the most important reason why I selected this property in the first place.

Sweet comfy little apartment in a great area!
We enjoyed our stay in Traverse City. We walked from the apartment through beautiful neighborhoods and even to the bay. We had everything we needed in our little apartment. We loved the Master Bed! Because the apartment is an older building, probably the only draw back for some would be the 18 steep steps from the parking lot up to the apartment with luggage. It was great exercise for us! 😊

Electrical problems and poor owner response
My family hoped to give a great review, however, electrical issues the last night prevent us from doing so. We were left with minimal electricity, no AC, and no lights in most of the building (including the hallway entrance/exit which was pitch black and had a very steep staircase). This electrical issue impacted both our unit and the other unit in the building, which also had VRBO renters. The owner took about 10 hours to respond to my messages where I explained the significance of the electrical situation. This was despite my sending messages via cellphone texts and VRBO platform. Ultimately the owner offered nothing more than excuses and a brief apology the next day. The location and unit were otherwise lovely. But we were very dissatisfied with this situation and the owner’s poor customer service regarding the matter.
