The apartment is in a great location for getting in and out of downtown. It’s only a few minutes from the subway. There are some shops nearby that have the essentials covered. For those looking to spend most of their time out in the city it worked well.
The place itself is small. When we arrived, certain parts of the apartment were not super clean. Random bits of hair and fuzz were found on the bed, the futon had some odd stains on it, and the floor had a certain level of residue. Not dusty, but there was still stuff that would be on the bottom of feet after a shower. The welcome guide also was a bit stained and sticky.
The multiple locks would occasionally get stuck or be difficult to lock/unlock. The apartment is also entered after walking through a laundry area that is shared with other people (I assume in the building). Occasionally that could get noisy in the morning.
The price was decent. Overall, we had a wonderful time in New York. This had great location, but not much else.
