I feel the pictures and description articulate this place rather well. If you are expecting a basement unit that is old and dark, you’ll be ready. If you are expecting a lavish hotel, you’ll be greatly disappointed. We were expecting an old basement apartment and paid for that (very well priced!!) so felt comfortable with our choice - didn’t bother us.
Pros:
-well priced
-close to subway (and we felt safe walking at night)
-Andrew was prompt in responses and even allowed us to drop our bags off early
-had minimal kitchen amenities but as much as we needed
Cons:
-my husband is 6’5” and had to hunch over quite a bit To get around apt
-the bathroom is TINY - maybe 8-12 inches between front of toilet and wall
-the reviews of the sound issues upstairs were more accurate than I would have thought. It’s an old home so everything creeks and booms - like paper thin walls. Fortunately the family wasn’t home for 1/2 our stay but when they did come home it was SUPER loud, almost unbearable at times. We sleep with noise machines and it wasn’t even close to covering it up. Just the nature of an old home and having kiddos.
