This apartment is beautiful with a roomy common area, large windows and very high cielings; myself, my 2 friends and their 2 year old daughter were more than comfortably accommodated. Everything was perfectly cleaned and better stocked than I anticipated with, among other things, coffee, cream and sugar in the kitchen, which I absolutely loved. The bathroom is a bit cramped but that's to be expected in NY.
I booked on short notice and wasn't certain what time I would be arriving, but I knew it might be late. I messaged Edna and Isaiah regarding this and was pleased to receive a prompt response; the keys were left for me in a coded lockbox so I didn't have to bother anyone with my late arrival.
There's a 24 hour McDonald's down the block, a diner on the corner and a gas station across the street. While located directly on a main road with several nightlife spots along the block, one just a few doors away, the neighborhood is surprisingly quiet with minimal foot traffic. We were able to find street parking within just a single turn around the block - unheard of in NY.
While not exactly something I look for when booking a rental, I loved the live plants peppered all over the apartment and the stocked bookshelves - both much appreciated touches.
The 11 am check out is earlier than I would have preferred but not unreasonable, particularly as the apartment was booked for that evening.
All in all, I had a wonderful stay and will likely book again on a future trip.
