Jena's place is so lovely to stay in, if you're like me and have a tough time to sleep in beds that aren't yours. The apartment itself has a warm, comfortable vibe with very cute touches like the green wall with the "Hello Gorgeous" sign. (For any social media users, it's a really nice background for selfies)
The AC/Heater units are very easy to navigate in the rooms.
The bathroom has a modern design with a square toilet, and has that type of shower with just one glass side -- which sometimes may be awkward for those that move around a bit, so be careful of any splashing!
For those that would want to stay long-term, I would recommend going to the bodega right outside the building (at the corner) to stock up on snacks, tea, coffee and such. The clerks there are also quite friendly! And the bodega is open 24hrs, I believe.
I was able to use the laundry room in the basement. You'll need to download an app on your phone and pre-pay -- which if you're staying long-term may come in handy, but if not, you may be left with a remaining balance that you can't use until you return. (I do hope I can return) Be sure to purchase the laundry detergent from the bodega downstairs (they have mini sizes). I was able to use a bit and then leave the rest for Jena <3
Jena and Kirk's response time is quite quick. Be sure to ask Jena about any restaurant recommends in the area! I had some great on-the-go breakfast sandwiches during my time in NYC. ^_^
Thank you again, Jena & Kirk!
