James’ place is in a great location, in a super safe area, surrounded by a lot of shops and restaurants that are all very good. We really enjoyed the rooftop and the access to free laundry in building, as well as the friendly neighbors. Unfortunately, the elevator was not operating and therefore the trek up and down the stairs was brutal (especially with all our stuff) but that’s pretty much anywhere in New York.
James was very accommodating and helpful when needed.
The only main issue we had during our stay was that the apartment needed a deep clean and that there wasn’t anywhere to put our things. We stayed for over a month so we came with a few suitcases and where not intending on living out of them for that long, but we made it work.
Ultimately, we really enjoyed our stay and were happy to call it our first home in nyc (with our kitty).
