Great location, apartment is average at best
Pros:

Loved the location. Apartment had an excellent layout and very spacious.

Cons:

Beds were very uncomfortable. The main bedroom windows opened up to a filthy atrium (not sure whether atrium is accurate description). Smelly, old clothes and debris thrown out through windows. Couldn’t open up window without smelling it. Old lounges worn out and covered up by blankets. Very noisy outside but that’s to be expected being on a main road. Carpet stained.

Close to the stadium but dated and run down. Would suffice for a one night stay.
Pros:

Location was great. Being on the Main Street it was easy to go look at shops. Also within walking distance to the stadium which we liked. Staff were helpful. Parking facility only a short distance away.

Cons:

Place was very dated and run down. Our room which was 6-3 was unpleasant. The door even though it was locked could be pushed open. The windows did not seal properly and rattled in the wind. Even though we only stayed one night and didn’t need to use it but the dishwasher was broken. The front of it was smashed and then an out of order sign was placed on. Couch was in rough shape. Just had a blanket tucked over the cushions to hide the cracks and stains on the couch. Other furniture was heavily marked there were dirty marks above the bed.
