Apartment exactly as described. I booked this place for the NY bar exam. Very clean and comfortable. The host was always available, if need be. The host also gratuitously prepared strawberries and pound cake for my arrival, which was very warm and welcoming. Only dislike about the apartment is that it's in the basement. With that being said, you must always keep the shades down if you want privacy, otherwise people walking on the street can freely peek into the apartment.
