We found the apartment to be situated in a lively street, the neighbours polite and always said hello. The area is very diverse. It is near two subway stations so you have a choice of lines to go on (suggest buying a metro card $33, for 7 days), you can also use these on certain buses too.
The apartment is clean, tidy. comfortable and well equipped. The beds are very comfortable, especially needed after being out exploring all day. But the best part of the stay is the host Guerline!!! She is fabulous! She is so warm and welcoming, gave us lots of advice and tips for our stay. She is quick to answer any queries you may have either before or during your stay. If we go back to New York will definitely be staying again!
