Lo was up front about the location of the apartment so we knew going in that it was a 40-45 minute subway ride to Manhattan. The distance wasn't an issue since the closest subway lines run frequently. The neighbourhood felt fairly safe and was lively but be prepared for passing noise on the street if you're staying over the weekend. Kitten was a charmer and we loved her. Our main critique would be cleanliness; although spacious the apartment was quite dusty, a bit messy and the bathroom/pet food area could have used more attention. We also had what was later (after we left) found to be one of their neighbours knock on the door to deliver a package, and we wish they had done so less aggressively (we did not respond to the insistent knocking). We realize this was not necessarily within Lo's control but think it fair to mention should it happen again. Other than that the value was good and we enjoyed our stay. Lo was a responsive host to our questions and concerns and we appreciate that.
