The apartment is in a great location. Although I wouldn't walk the streets alone after dark in that neighbourhood. The subway is a five minute walk away. The apartment has everything you need, some more utensils would be good. The towels are super soft and the bed is firm. It's get hot but the air conditioners are too loud to keep on while you sleep. You have no choice than to be up when the sun comes up because the curtains are all see through. The neighbours above come home at 4am and you can hear the high heals as they walk above you. I didn't find Andre that helpful, I felt he didn't know the area very well. We arrived at 11pm and we were grateful he meet us that late to show us around. However, we arrived hungry and asked about food he said nothing was open. I asked about a grocery store I noticed in the cab half a block away. Andre said it had been closed down for years. I found it open the next day along with another store open 24 hours and a Chinese take away on the corner that closes at 11.30pm, all of which can be seen from the front door. I asked where the subway was and was shown on the map where it was, he offered no advice on what train to catch or where to shop for food. It's the number 3 train to Manhattan for those of you who go. He said he would come by to collect rubbish and refill the water cooler but we never saw him. I left rubbish outside not knowing what to do with it. Overall it is a great apartment in a good location out of the city but do your own research before you arrive.
