Overall I enjoyed my stay at Jellybean 1. It was clean, quiet, had a mini fridge in the room, and comfy bed and room darkening curtains made for a very restful sleep. An excellent location within a short walk to downtown amenities. The room needed some minor maintenance like cleaning a minor drain clog, and new caulk around the tub, but otherwise it was a nice stay.

The room was clean and parking was easy. The A/C wasn't working, and although a small fan was provided, the room remained warm and muggy. The location is within walking distance of nearby restaurants and bars, and the area appeared safe. We didn't use the kitchen area.

The location was great and rooms were clean. Didn't like sharing a bathroom. When I booked I read private bathroom for basic room. The people we shared bathroom with were unaware as well. There is more than one basic room type....just beware when you book.

This is not a luxury accommodation, but it served the purpose, was clean, safe, and well-located. Great for the budget traveler. It was unclear to me that we were only getting a bedroom/bathroom suite, so I was expecting to have the whole place to ourselves. There were other occupants of the other bedrooms. It was okay once we got used to it. Location was very accessible to the tourist area. It would have been helpful to have some kind of instruction to all occupants about sharing the kitchen area. For example, there were a lot of food items there, but we didn't know if we could use them or not. We didn't know if some of the occupants were long term tenants and the food might have belonged to them. Better communication would have improved this situation.

This place is NOT as advertised. Doors slamming all night, reeks of stale old cigarette smoke. More like a hostel than anything. Great if you hate being home. Bedding polyester and smells stale. Was supposed to stay three nights and left after one with no refund from the property. Book at your own risk. Also it’s not the building that’s shown in the main page of the listing. It’s beige. Not colorful.
