Gladys’s place is a basement apartment with it’s own entrance and bathroom. She was flexible with our arrival and check out time, which was very much appreciated. When we arrived, the apartment was very clean and neat. The location is a 10 minute walk from the J train and a 15 minute walk from the A train so it’s pretty convenient. There are markets and restaurants in walking distance as well.
As far as comfort, it could use a couple tweaks - the mattress could stand to be replaced. My husband and I felt the center sunk in as though we were sleeping on an under-inflated air mattress. Also, we did see a few spiders in the home and I woke up with spider bites on my leg. Nothing can be done about the ceiling height but beware that they are low. I am 5’9” and only had about 2 inches above my head in some areas.
Overall, this is a great value for the price.
