This space is excellent for a long-term stay. I stayed for eight weeks. The unit amenities are of good quality and well thought out to anticipate any needs of guest. Everything you need is in the apartment.
It’s near to the D & 4 trains. There’s a nearby park, but no coffee shops or cafes. Many bodegas within 1 -2 minutes walking.
There’s major construction going on next door & behind the house, which starts around 6:30 am - it’s not too bad given you’re in the city.
I met the hosts once; they were friendly. They were responsive any time I reached out. They actively monitor security cameras and use of the home with great detail; the host reached out once around 10/11 pm because someone in another unit had the water running too long (he gets alerts for things like that). It was the only time he had called me. He reached out when I had packages with instructions for delivery (very much appreciated) and, the day before I left he shared info about the trash schedule; I wish I would known all the trash pickup & placement upon check-in.
The only downside / My only issue was the noise from the unit above. It gets really loud and makes it near impossible to go or stay sleep between 11 pm -3 am. I contacted the hosts regarding the issue a few times, and they responded almost immediately, acknowledging my message. However, a few nights in a row of little to no sleep isn’t ideal.
It is a basement apartment, so I expected that noise comes with the territory, just not as much as I experienced and I understand the host can’t control the other guest activities in their other units.
Overall, great apartment for a long-term stay.
