Great location by the metro. It is a more local feel if you're looking for that since it is a residential area, so tourists are pretty non-existent in the area. I felt safe in the area, but it depends on what you're accustomed to, it felt like parts of Brooklyn for me. The place is spacious with good light. The bedroom is quiet since it's away from the street. The breaker box to navigate the furnace will be something to get familiar with if using. It's only 1/2 a flight of stairs up and easy to get to within the building. Communication was good with Christophe as well and he gave some great recommendations to explore the neighborhood.
