The location of this apartment was excellent with a 10 minute walk to the subway to catch the A or C train into Manhatten. There were local convenience stores and restaurants close by also. The area was quiet apart from the first night which was a Saturday when the neighbourhood was very noisy until the early hours of the morning. The bed was very comfortable and we had everything in the apartment we needed. It's worth bearing in mind that this apartment is up a floor once you get into the building if you have mobility problems. We loved the feel of the building and Jamal was an excellent host. We would definitely recommend this stay!
