The loft is as described: spacious, clean, comfortable and a few steps from the light rail train. Commuting to down town NYC is about 30 minutes (combination of light rail & metro).
There are no restaurants in the neighborhood, but there is a small supermarket in walking distance that can provide basic groceries. Does not feel too safe to walk there at night though.
The kitchen is fully stocked for preparing full meals and we loved the beer & bottled water in the fridge, light snacks and all the other essentials (coffee, condiments, oil etc).
The only comment we had was that the beds were not very comfortable (thin foam mattress) and the linen did not smell fresh and clean.
All in all had a great stay and will recommend it if you looking for a comfortable, affordable stay close to NYC.
