If you don't mind a rundown building and you are looking for a large apartment in a convenient (but slightly sketchy) location, this place will suit your needs. It is hot in the summer (no a/c) and there is a lot of construction everywhere around the building so noise is a factor during the day. The pool is really refreshing (despite the construction noise) although it's good for families to know that there are often people smoking and drinking poolside. Jennifer is responsive as a host and was very kind about our late check-in. The apartment really needs a guide to amenities and it doesn't represent great value, considering the condition of the building, but it is very large and next to the subway.
