The apartment is nice -- pretty much as it is advertised. The location is about 45 mins away from Manhattan and the general area could be a little better, but the subway is literally around the corner to the apartment! That part was super convenient. The apartment has everything you would need to be comfortable, plus there is Hulu and Netflix, which was awesome!! Safiyah is a wonderful host. She is responsive and great with communication. At first, we had a bit of an issue with music and noise from the tenets living upstairs, but I texted Safiyah, and she was quick to help resolve the issue. I really appreciated that and feel very taken care of.
