We loved our stay in this apartment! It is a 3rd story walk-up in the top apartment, but it is very quiet. We did not hear much noise at all! There is a window unit in the bedroom which keeps the place pretty cool. There was also a tower fan in the kitchen. The kitchen was stocked with flatware, pots and pans, and snacks. You have everything you need to make a meal at home if you want. We found a coffee shop and bagel place within a couple of blocks and were able to use the subway or get an Uber easily. Maria is great at communication and check in was easy. She checked on us by text message during our stay and also made check out easy. The apartment was immaculately clean and she provided bottled water, towels, toilet paper, and snacks. I thought this was a very nice touch. The wifi worked great and there is a separate living room to watch TV. The bed is very firm but the sheets were clean and very soft. This was a great stay!
