This space is in a great, safe neighborhood. It is literally right across from a bar/restaurant featured in the New York Times and within walking distance of a supermarket and a number of historic sites. The apartment itself is perfectly fine but not exactly modern or stylish. A couple of things to keep in mind: the noise from the street can be significant (I would have had a hard time sleeping without earplugs) and, while it might sound weird, the toilet is in a very narrow space. A heavier set person would literally have a hard time sitting on the toilet in this apartment.
