The apartment was as advertised. It's simple but nice. The shower has great hot water, but the rooms are a bit cool in winter (nothing that wearing a sweater or pajamas won't alleviate). One thing to keep in mind if you need to drop off your luggage early is that the storage lockers are one flight of stairs down (the elevator doesn't go there). Also, the building elevator only stops on the landings between floors so you'll still need to carry your bags up or down a flight of stairs. While it's a few blocks walk to the subways, I didn't mind it at all. There are two grocery stores across the street and several coffee shops to choose from. I would definitely recommend this place especially for friends or a family traveling together.
