Pros:
Easy to commute as there are two subway stations closeby and a bus stop.
Easy to shop groceries. Pizza store.
Economical price in Manhattan.
Never met the owner but Checkin was smooth.
Cons:
Washing machine isn’t usable, I was ADVISED to use laundry service outside the apartment as the in-house machine makes lot of noise.
The smoke alarm went on twice when I was cooking omelettes as there is no chimney or may be my cooking was too smoky. So I decided to cook less.
Good for short stays. As there is no lift , be strong enough to lift the bigger bags/luggages to the fifth floor if you arrive from overseas (like me from India who had two big luggages).
You can’t complain too much when you get a place for this price in Manhattan.
Thank you Miriam.
