This place is just as cozy as advertised in the photos! We stayed here for about 2 months, so long-termish, and throughout our entire stay Vlada was extremely accommodating and quick to respond to any requests or questions we had! She’s been sure to keep the kitchen and overall apartment very well-stocked, and the location/neighborhood are great as well! My partner and I had some worries with regards to it being a basement, and having slightly lower ceilings, but the location, graciousness of the host, warm and cozy atmosphere, and well-maintained furniture quickly put those concerns to rest! Strongly recommend it to anyone interested.
The commute to NYC for my partner, while a little long compared to other areas, was also fairly convenient as well, for anyone hoping to find a place from which to go to NYC!
