My friend and I really enjoyed staying in this master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. The location was safe, didn’t feel unsafe even when coming home late at night. The area is residential, but there is a grocery store and restaurants, and the subway is right there with quick connections to Manhattan.
The bed was very comfortable and the apartment was quiet, but since there are other rooms in the apartment, we did hear people coming in late at night, while others woke up early and since the bedroom is right next to the kitchen, our sleep was interrupted when people microwaved food at 1am, and the kitchen/hallway is very echoey. Some people struggled to use the door code and we woke up to their struggles and beeping. We also talked to other guests and realized none of us were told how to lock the door once you’re inside, so sometimes the apartment door was unlocked. You can lock your room door, but maybe a good idea to tell guests to lock the door once they leave the apartment.
The bathroom has a tub/shower combo, lots of counter space and a mirror cabinet where you can store things. There was no hand soap in the bathroom or hand towels, so we got our own soap and used the bath towels provided, but especially during a pandemic it would’ve been nice to have soap and separate little towels. The kitchen also had no hand soap. The bathroom was however nice and clean, so convenient to have our own bathroom.
Karen was a good host, responded quickly and fulfilled our requests. We would definitely recommend staying here. No bed bugs, roaches or rats were seen and it was clean in the apartment, although there was some hair on our bedroom floor. This place is good for families too!
