No Parties or Gatherings - Violation of this rule may result in termination of stay without refund as well as a minimum $500 fine.

Violation of this rule will result in a $50 per visitor per night, Example: If you have booked for 3 nights, and are found to have an unapproved visitor, you will be charged $50 per visitor per night = total $150 per visitor. We can approve a visitor if you add the visitor at the time of the reservation as a guest, or during your stay by sending us an email and gaining approval in writing.

Guest screening is the process of proactively assessing the risk posed by each guest through legal, non-discriminatory, and detailed checks.

Please note: In the event of a clogged toilet, we have provided you with a plunger in the home for you to clear the toilet, if however you require us to come out and clear the clog the following fee will apply $150.00 if after or outside of business hours or $95 during business hours. If when we arrive we find that the reason for the clog was because of an issue with the physical toilet there this fee will be refunded

We won't return> | |
This was our third stay at Niche. And with each visit, the price of the room increased and quality of our stay decreased. To begin, the rates for our stay this time were nearly doubled because it was college graduation weekend. When we arrived, there was no soap or shampoo in the shower. The bench in the shower was broken and falling off the wall. There were dirty fingerprints and stains on the bathroom walls. The kitchen utensils were covered in Parmesan cheese, so I had to wash them. After a day in the unit, our a/c stopped working. The thermostat read "no signal - wait". I contacted management 3 times and they assured me maintenance was called and someone would contact me. No one called. The a/c was off for a day. The next day, our key code for the front door and our unit failed. I called 4 times, and emailed 4 times. No one was able to help and we were locked out of our unit for 90 minutes. As a result we were late to our daughter's college graduation. This property is not managed well, and there is no one in town or on site to visit the property to help guests. Instead, you call a number and talk to a person that isn't local. I was not compensated for any of these inconveniences and no one called to apologize. I was only told, "this has never happened before" as if it was MY fault. My security deposit has not been returned either. |

I booked through expedia, sorting by price. Amongst the cheapest options was Niche, and I saw a couple bedroom photos before I hastily booked a studio. Staff communicated constantly through email to make sure I knew how to get in and get settled. They also responded very quickly to any questions and concerns. When I showed up, I expected a small studio apartment, but |

Staff communicated constantly through email to make sure I knew how to get in and get settled. They also responded very quickly to any questions and concerns. When I showed up, I expected a small studio apartment, but it was substantially larger than expected. Living room had a large couch and a couple chairs, there was a high table next to the kitchenette, bathroom was big as well, and the bedroom was equally as spacious. All that for $100 a night is pretty good. The only complaints were: No on-site staff in case of any issues, but if you treat this more like an Airbnb then that's not too bad of an issue. Second one is my unit was next to an alley where the dumpsters were and at 6am the garbage trucks make a lot of noise. |
