Helen was very communicative before check in and during my stay when I had to communicate about a leak in the ceiling (it rained for an entire 36 hours!) I would say the apartment is exactly as described. It's a classic NYC 4th fl walkup, with an open kitching/living area that gets lots of sun, and a separate bedroom. You're not getting luxury, but you are getting an apartment near public transit with all the basic amenities you'll need. I was in town for work and to see some old friends, so I didn't spend too much time in the apartment. It was quite suitable for an afternoon of zoom calls, and good rest at night.
