This was an amazing location and experience. I did a long term stay and wanted to even extend!
Pros:
clean and updated space
Friendly staff and easily reachable
Sheets and towels are changed once a week
Mop and broom are provided for the space
Nice dishes
Sunshine/light is quality
Vibe lights are a must and exists in this space!
Rooftop access is beautiful
Laundry room free for use in certain times - obviously you provide your own detergent but they do provide an iron AND there’s a dryer which is a plus around here!
A/C in unit
Quiet at night
Double door access
A couple blocks from Amsterdam, Walmart , and the park
The hot water and water pressure are perfecto
The bed is comfy, plenty of pillows, and a cozy blanket is provided at request if there isn’t one in your unit
The entire building is well kept and being cleaned at all times. The stairs, the rooftop, the walkway, all of it. It feels so nice.
Cons:
Construction next door but that’s almost anywhere around here
Little storage for food if you are a long term stay. We made it work by using the drawers under the sink optimally along with the top of the cabinets
The fridge is small so plan accordingly - we accommodated this by planning meals 24hrs in advance and shopped on a needed only basis. It worked for us.
No oven and two burners if you are a long term stay but this is common.
There is no cleaning services besides the sheets and towels once a week and if you did want them to clean, you would be paying extra and required to supply the cleaning supplies. I ended up buying a few things and cleaning myself as it’s a small space.
Don’t be surprised if it gets a little rowdy and late on the weekends - there’s a resturant below and I believe there’s long term people here but it’s never bothered me. When the windows are closed and I’m in the bedroom, I don’t hear a thing! I’m only listing this as a con for those who are bothered by this. It was Not a con for me. I wish I got to know those who were having a blast!
There’s a gym but not much in it so it’s not very useful. Would love to see this space maybe as a workspace of some sort but if you like a good treadmill and require little weights, it’ll do for you. I joined a gym near by.

This place is amazing. It deserves the long review and honestly as pros outweighs the cons x1000. These are things I wish I knew and I hope it helps the next person. There were two of us occupying the space and we thought we would be on top of each other given it’s a smaller space, but we were surprised that we felts very comfortable, it’s small enough that it’s easy to keep clean and tidy, as well as the outdoor space really kept it all feeling spacious and comfy.
Highly recommend!! Also…you Definitely need to try Pizza Amore down below. It’s delicious!
