Allen and Irina were great hosts! Very communicative and friendly. The apartment was very well stocked with plenty of linens, towels, and kitchenware.
As other reviews have mentioned, you can hear a pet bird upstairs every now and then, but only ever in the middle of the day. We personally weren't bothered at all by this.
We found the location very convenient, being just a few minutes walking to the L, G, J and M trains.
