Brigida's home is located in Washington Heights. I used to live in Washington Heights so I knew exactly what to expect. Some folks have mentioned that they felt unsafe while walking to/from her place but I felt completely fine and I traveled alone for this particular trip. I came back to the room late at night and managed to walk down the street without any issues. My tip? Walk confidently and without hesitation.
The apartment is on the fourth floor so you'll be in for a bit of exercise. Don't worry, you'll survive! The apartment is welcoming and tidy. The bathroom remained spotless during the three nights I was there and the room was exactly as pictured. It was clean and very spacious! It did get warm at night but the windows open and there's a fan available for use.
I'd happily stay here again. Brigida was very responsive. Even though she only speaks Spanish, when I met her on the morning I was checking out, she was pleasant and helpful. Thank you, Brigida!
