Our stay at Keith's apartment was a mix of good and bad experiences. Firstly, the good. The apartment is in a great location and is close to good shopping and dining in the East Village. The apartment was spacious, the bedrooms were both a good size and the bathrooms were modern and well maintained. There were three separate airconditioners which were a welcome find (although the one in the main bedroom leaked onto the floor). Unfortunately the rest of our experience was not so positive. The description of the apartment and the photos did not match what we found. The apartment is certainly not brand new and was quite dirty when we arrived. There were some random bits of furniture and other items throughout the house and on the balcony which made it look untidy. The description didn't adequately capture the difficulty in getting into the apartment; lots of difficult to climb stairs, keys that got stuck (only one set of keys between four of us) and the need to traipse through another apartment's kitchen while going up to ours. According to locals the rent is typical of the area, but perhaps more attention to detail in the apartment's presentation would have improved our stay.
