The apartment was clean and spacious, and the location was within close walking distance to the subway. Check in and out was easy.
The neighborhood is a bit rough, and VERY loud. There is a fire station nearby, so there were sirens often, and people yelling and fighting in the street at all hours. We could hear the neighbor’s conversations through the floors/walls. It was very difficult to get a good night’s sleep with that much noise, perhaps this was the Bronx experience we just weren’t prepared for. While the neighborhood was noisy, i would like to say the people were great.
While there was a lot of space in the apartment itself, and the bedrooms accommodated six people nicely, the other amenities in the apartment did not. The living room has a small love seat and bar-stool type chairs, so we could not all relax together at the end of a long day. There were also not enough cups or utensils for all of us to use. WiFi was available but coverage very inconsistent in different areas of the apartment.
