We loved the apartment - it was clean and spacious for a NY apartment and the location was great. Eugene was a great host and quite helpful helpful prior to our stay. He also occasionally checked in to see if we needed anything. The only was is that the apartment floor was dusty - it wasn't a big deal because we just wore socks around the apartment. We didn't have any issues with the lock (you have to pull the door handle towards you while turning the key counter clockwise). I would definitely stay at the same location again.
