Great place for our three generation family to stay while visiting other family in the city! Lots of space to spread out and unwind after long days sightseeing.
On hot days I recommend putting fans in the bedroom doorway or window to get the cooler air from the window unit to permeate those back bedrooms.
Even though we were a party of seven, the single bathroom worked out great! Never ran out of hot water and we all decided by the end of our stay that our feet liked the pebbles, a bit of a massage, though they took some getting used to.
We cooked one meal and that went well. Enough space to prep, cook and clean. The oversized table saw us gathered several times laughing and debriefing the day.
While the building looks shabby upon entry, Josh’s space opens up and makes you relaxed upon entry. Having been in several working artists lofts over my life across several cities, I laughed at the review maintaining this isn’t one. Sure, the walls are only adorned with light fixtures, but I would not hang valuable works in a rental space of this price. This is a large, high ceilinged space, fitted out by hand, decorated with eclectic kitsch, interesting cook books and novels as well as mismatched furniture from several eras of time. I loved the old sewing machine and trunk.
And for you tv watchers, we actually rarely watch tv, but on our arrival night, the Celtics were in the NBA finals, and we had three major fans. The internet was super fast and stable, we just pulled the game up on a lap top. (Too bad they lost 😞)
Overall, I would return here in the future! Steps from J M and G trains, maybe more, but that’s what we used. Steps from great food snd minutes to manhattan. One night four of us walked over the Williamsburg Bridge, a couple of mile walk in total, but just beautiful at sunset. Highly recommend!
