Very convenient to the subway, vibrant neighbourhood, I'm a little tiny white woman and I wandered around alone without any worries. Kind of loud with the windows open, but there is always the A/C option and heaters/fans are provided. Apartment was clean and had everything necessary for basic cookery. Titi (manager who met us) was very gracious despite our late arrival (pro tip - make sure you are on a red 2 or red 3 train as you head uptown, the red 1 line takes you 8-10 blocks west of where you want to be).
