I’d like to start with saying that I had a great stay in this studio, appartement 55. Yes it’s small, but it has everything that I needed to make my stay comfortable. There’s a small kitchenette to cook yourself a simple meal, the bathroom is spacious and the location is just perfect.
I would definitely recommend to book with Ignacio!
The best part:
1) First of all, the location was just perfect for me! Highly recommended to experience New York’s finest!
2) It's very close to the 6 train, or maybe a 10-15 min walk to other trains, so it's easy to travel anywhere in the city.
3) There's a Trader Joe's around the corner, perfect to get your groceries.
4) It was perfect to have the kitchenette with all the supplies you need to prepare a simple healthy meal.
5) The apartment has a lot of storage space, and I had no trouble to put all my clothes and empty suitcases away once I unpacked them. This made it easy to keep it clean and tidy.
6) The bathroom is quite spacious and has everything you need. Loved having all the mirrors and the medicine cabinet.
7) There's laundry available in the basement, very convenient for a long-term stay!
Some remarks:
1) When I arrived, the studio wasn’t as clean as I’d offer it to my guests. There was a lot of dust, especially under the bed, and I even found some old socks under the closet.
2) It gets very warm in the building, and the AC makes a lot of noise. During fall/winter opening the windows would be enough.
3) There’s basically no view, the windows face a brick wall, and therefor there wasn’t a lot of daylight. It personally didn’t bother me that much, because you don’t spend a lot of time inside anyways, but it can feel a bit isolated.
