블랙 스완의 그랜트

All good.

It was a great stay! Neat location and the place was percent for my needs and then some.

Room was absolutely perfect. Very beautiful and rustic. Absolutely no complaints with the property. For future residents, I'll warn, it seems to be a trend for the locals to drag race and blast obnoxious music up and down the street until 4 a.m. Nothing against the property. Next time, I'll book with Black Swan a few few blocks off the historic downtown street. Everything is very walkable. Superb area.

The unit was clean, in a great location and easily accessed. Communication with staff was great. They were quickly responsive. The only thing we didn’t factor in was parking. There is a public garage parking nearby and metered street parking if available, but we had no issues using the garage. The kitchen was stocked with most needed items and appliances. There are lots of good restaurants downstairs and within walking distance.

Check in was easy, though be prepared to submit a photo ID electronically before receiving check in info. Upon arrival, the location to shopping is hard to beat. It is right on Broughton St where the majority of the shopping is. However, parking is hard to come by. Plan to park in the State St garage a block away as it is easiest to get to and cheapest for overnight parking. The room was good, though it had a mild smell at the time. It is an older builder so expect creaking floors, thin walls, industrial look and feel (which was part of the appeal for me). All went well the first night until around 8:30pm on a Tuesday night one of the smoke detectors starting going off, likely from a dead battery. The detector was to high onto the wall to safely reach so I contacted the host for help. This is where the stay took a turn. We were told that no one was available to come shut it off and that no one would be able to be there until 11am the next day. So they initially expected my family of 5 to listen to the smoke detector go off every minute for the next 14 hours. No thanks. It took some a threat of leaving/refund before they agreed to offer us two separate units in the same building for the night. There was not another 3/3 room available so the pitch was two separate 2/2 rooms instead. We opted to move into one of the 2/2 units because it had a pull out sofa. I was thankful for the fix, but someone with a ladder, a D battery & ten min would've saved us the hassle of moving units.
