Wedding was held in the main area during my Saturday night stay which caused some serious noise disturbances. Additionally, if this property was refundable I would have canceled my stay early on due to the check in policy.

The Pennsylvanian is a beautiful property from the outside. Inside it’s a bit dark and dingy (and smelly), especially the hallways. The apartment was ok. It has the amenities needed (kitchen, bathroom, living room and its laundry). However, the apartment door didn’t close properly without having to prop it up and pushing it hard. For the price paid, I expected a bit more lux.
Communication from property managers was good.

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
I got married downstairs at the Pennsylvanian and this was by far the best place to rent. Absolutely beautiful the front desk was extra friendly and helpful the apartment had everything we needed even for a dinner with the family afterwards.

Stay here for a free visit from Stuart Little
The apartment building is nice. The property management doesn’t see to the apartment being clean. There were several issues, the worst was the mouse. We saw a mouse come in under the apartment door and later we saw it on the couch. We blocked off the bedroom, hoping it would leave the way it came. We didn’t realize the apartment was its home. He was back the next day, so I called the property management. After an hour, I was told they couldn’t do pest control until the next day. They offered to move me to a different apartment, or let me stay with the mouse for 50% off the remaining nights. The property management is okay having guest stay with wild rodents. After wishing Stuart the best (since I was in his home) we switched apartments. The new one had hair in the shower and a random pill in the window. We won’t be back.

The property was great! I really felt comfortable in the space. The concierge Naya was extremely helpful and welcoming, which was nice in the moment of being slightly overwhelmed. My ONE critique would be to simplify the instructions for finding the parking. That was the most confusing park for me. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would book this again!

Had visitors coming in from out of town. Had to call Abode to instruct them to send a cleaning team out. The place was filthy.. certainly not worth the money. They also put a $500 hold after you pay Expedia so I had over $1200 wrapped up in a dirty apartment. Will never use Abode again. I’ve always had great experiences with Expedia. They should be off your list of rentals.

The property used to be an old train station converted into luxury apartments and event space.
Likes:Proximity to downtown and the Strip District
Washer/Dryer with detergent
Spacious
Very Nice Gym
Nicely stocked kitchen and bathroom.Great temperature control.Early check in available.Front door staff friendly and helpful.Dislikes:Noise from the train at odd hours of night and early morning (3:00 am). Noise emanating from event space. There were two events during our stay. The first was fine, but the second we could hear the music quite clearly but only for about 45 minutes. We had to get up early the next morning so for the person sleeping on the sofa bed it wasn’t great.Cumbersome reservation process outside of the travel booking platform.Difficult to use ride share because the drivers are not familiar with all the entrances of the building. My particular unit needed a deep clean. Drawers in the kitchen and bathroom had random junk (paper and plastic bags, odd toiletry items, plastic carry out containers). The baseboards and the louver door were thick with dust. There was a ring stain around the tub (I tried scrubbing it out with no success) and the oven was filthy. Some of the dishes, utensils, and pans were dirty (and some should be replaced). Everything else was clean and usable.Note—I didn’t call Abode for every single issue because I do not prefer anyone in my space after I have checked in. The value of the stay was good despite the negatives.
