We stayed two nights December 30th & 31st 2012. There is a serious problem will the shower. The water temperature fluctuates suddenly from scalding hot to ice cold. The problem is with the old plumbing in the building and with the mixer valves in the shower. We both were scalded more than once while taking a shower. This issue is not acceptable and is especially dangerous for unsuspecting children. We do not recommend that apt for anyone until the shower problem is resolved. We would not have booked it had we known in advance that the shower did not work. We both wanted to leave the next morning, but we couldn’t find anything available or affordable for New Year’s Eve. The location is good for the subway, parking is easy and free, the bed is comfortable. The lobby of the building is run down and dirty. Nataliya is a friendly host but she should have been upfront about the shower (before booking).
