This was a nice apartment. There was a mix up in the arrival process - I was given the owner's number to call instead of her assistant's and the owner was not exactly welcoming when I called. Her assistant did meet us at the apartment and was very nice. Two potential safety issues to note: the apartment is on the ground floor and there is no safe provided for storing valuables. Also, there is no key, just a code for the door to the building and a code for the front door. Neither of which are particularly tricky or hard to learn. I was worried if these codes are not changed regularly! It made me more nervous about that because there is no keyless deadbolt for locking the door completely while you are inside the apartment. Inside, the apartment was nice - and the location seemed fine although, anywhere in NYC, I would be more comfortable with a higher level of security.
