The apartment was very clean. It appears everything was remodeled within the past couple of years, with quality appliances. The kitchen was well stocked with the standard items. Both bathrooms were very clean. The showers were fantastic. We just used the bathroom with the walk-in shower, and did not use the shower/tub combo. With a very easy sliding shower door. The kitchen and baths both had small guest boxes filled with soap, pods for laundry, shampoo, conditioner: things you need that you might not think about bringing. Both bedrooms were inviting, with comfortable beds and smart tv's. We have been visiting Highlands for years, and everyplace in Highlands tends to have very slow regular cable issues. If you use any of the pay apps to watch movies like Netflix, Amazon, etc., bring your login and password so you can continue to watch them. The unit has a washer and dryer that work. Both bedrooms had smart tv's, and a 3rd smart tv in the living room. The A/C works very well. Again, very well. A couple points of note: Yes, the unit is above a convenience store and gas station. They start opening at 6am and close at 10pm. I am a very light sleeper and it woke me up. The stairs up to the unit are a floor and a half. They were easy to walk, but may be a challenge for some guests. Overall, the unit is wonderful. We stayed 4 nights in July. We will definitely be staying there again. The listing agent communicates very quickly if you have any issues.

My family (with a 16 year old boy and an 11 year old girl) stayed here for Thanksgiving week and it was perfect. The kids loved the convenience of being able to run down to the store if they wanted a drink or snack, and the easy walk to shops and restaurants downtown kept us in the middle of everything without the noise of neighbors. The kitchen was well appointed with all we needed to whip up a Thanksgiving feast, though we were also pleasantly surprised to see local restaurants also open as an option for the holiday. This was our second time staying in this apartment and we will be back!

We chose this location because it would charming to stay above the "market"... well between the time we reserved and our trip the "market" has been sold and become a full blown gas station. They do not close at 6pm, the close at 10pm. We stayed in unit the right on the very busy street. Every person who has a diesel truck or sports car without a muffler makes no less than 75 trips up and down the road all day starting at 5am continuing until well after midnight. The folks who work int he gas station report to work between 4am & 5am- we know because when they arrive they are certain to make as much noise as possible. We expressed our disappointment with the management folks- they seemed to hear us but none went out of their way. Zero follow-up... they tell you they have a phone number you can text and will receive a response... I sent 3 separate texts over the course of 3 days and have yet to receive a response. The only TV that works is in the living room. No curtains on the windows in the bedroom that faces the gas pumps- so bring thumbtacks and a sheet to make your own- blinds do not close either. Apartment was VERY clean and well appointed otherwise. Other than lack of sleep and ungodly street noise- great place to stay!

We went to the apartment that we rented and there was a guest already there. He said to check with the management office across the street because they moved us.. The other apartment was fine - it looked a lot like the one we thought we rented. The only issue was that there was no Wi-Fi. No television, no cell phone service and no Wi-Fi. The girl at the office told us that when we checked in, so they were aware of it. The apartment itself was very nice- well appointed and in a great location. And clean. It was disappointing not be able to make calls, use wi-fi or watch TV, however.

Newer renovated condo above convenience store. Easy walk to stores and restaurants in town and located just across the street from rec center.

This was a good location. Easy to walk to town. Even though over a store, the store is not open all night so noise issues. Blinds on windows do not keep all light out, so bring your sleep mask. I would stay here again.
