Great place to experience New York. The subway station nearby made exploring the city a breeze. The close proximity of fun restaurants, yummy bakeries and convenience stores are a great asset to this apartment rental. Mekkie is a very attentive host and was timely and courteous with our questions and concerns. The apartment is well appointed, clean and rather spacious for New York standards. I highly recommend this rental if you want to feel a part of a neighborhood and avoid the hustle and bustle of mid-town or lower Manhattan.
