The place was pretty much as advertised. The apartment was clean and stocked with everything my two kids and I needed for a quick two-day trip to visit a few colleges. We enjoyed being near many restaurants, grocery stores, museums, and shopping, and we appreciated how everything was within walking or train distance. The only downsides were maybe the street noise, which wasn't a huge deal for us, and the heating in the building was much too hot for us, so we had to turn on the A/C units (in November). Also, the foldout couch was beautiful as a couch, but not so comfortable as a bed.
