The space is palatial, and visually arresting, but you can tell that from the photos. Things the photos don't show are things like doors that don't quite latch, bathroom floors the texture of emery boards, and a slight smell (is it bleach? Something else?). All of which are a trade off for staying in older homes.
It's a location that is *almost* convenient to a variety of places, but not *quite* to most of them. I'd recommend learning the subte and using it (except at rush hour).
The fans in the bedrooms were a godsend as it was very hot and the breeze only entered the apartment in the morning. The washer/dryer was more than I expected. The café across the street and around the corner had wonderful facturas.
