“Cellar unit” is just a fancy word for basement .
Pros :
Very clean apartment ,
Very good price .
Well equipped kitchen- There is small refrigerator , electric burner , utensils .
Cons :
Since it is in the basement there will be noise . It was very bothersome . It reached its pinnacle on the 3rd day evening - we were back from NYC , very tired . And suddenly we felt like we were put in a torture chamber. But after we told Pierre , the following days it had significantly reduced .
The apartment is about 1.1 mile away from Journal Square (Trains to NYC)- it would take you about $8 on an Uber to reach there and if you are 4 people then the bus fare would be almost same . Also , NYC Subway unlimited ride passes are not applicable for path trains . They have to be bought separately . So traveling to NYC and getting back costed me approx $38 daily (for 4 people) .
But overall I didn’t regret staying here. Albeit Pierre was slightly slow in his responses - he was a wonderful host.
