Overall, our stay was incredible. We greatly enjoyed the apartment, found the location quite convenient, and appreciated Dana's kindness. We stayed for three nights (Wed-Sat) and enjoyed a nice home-made breakfast each morning (a grocery store is quite close) replete with fresh coffee. We also cooked dinner one night and found that the apartment was adequately stocked for a simple dinner.

That said, there are a couple things that I think potential guests should know:

1) the apartment is not lived in by a permanent resident. Rather, it is treated as an investment and seems to be rented, along with many other similar apartments, through Airbnb. This means that you do not have to worry about clutter of another person's belongings, but it also means that the apartment lacks certain items you would expect in someone's apartment: salt, pepper, paper towels, etc.

2) while the apartment was quite quiet on Wednesday night, it was quite loud on Thursday and Friday nights. I currently live in the Village in New York City and am used to loud street traffic, but this was unbelievably loud and continued past 6 am. I would stay again during the week, but given the noise, I would definitely think twice before staying over the weekend.

3) because it appears that this ad represents several units in the same building, the specific layout of your unit may vary, and I would not rely on the photos to ensure the precise layout. The apartment I stayed in had the bedroom in the back which helped with noise, but I do not know if other apartments are configured differently. This fact also appears to explain how there are 40+ reviews.

That all said, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend the apartment to others.
