Close to 1 subway line and bus routes as well. I wasn't in town for long but the 1 took me everywhere I needed to go. The room is as pictured and it's on ground level. The apartment laundromat is conveniently right outside the apartment. I struggled with the main door lock at times but thankfully Farouk was there to help me. It was nice to have my own washroom and also access to a fridge and microwave. I'd recommend Farouk's place to other travelers!
