The building is conveniently located to eating places and amenities. It is close to several bus stops for travel up/down town and across town, and also to the subway. Given its proximity to 2nd Avenue, the apartment is pleasantly quiet as the only window (in the partitioned off "bedroom") is not street-facing. However, this causes little natural light come into the unit, so the use of electrical lighting is necessary, even during the day. The apartment is not as bright, not as large and not as new as seen in the photos. However, the centrally-controlled apartment temperature was comfortable and the shower had good temperature and water pressure. The apartment was stocked with ample clean towels and toilet paper. No cooking was done during the stay, so I cannot comment on the stove or utensils supplied. A comfortable two week stay overall.
