The location was wonderful. Roomy, mid century modern vibe. Yes, there is a lot of noise from 7th Ave, of course there is. We played white noise on the sound dock and faced the speakers over the bed to combat this. There is an inexpensive laundry right across the street which offers same day service. The kitchen wasn't what Aussies are used to (no kettle, no toaster)- but there are some hot plates and a toaster oven up in the cupboard. There are plenty of options nearby for breakfast, lunch and dinner at all $ ranges.
It was pretty special to see the Stonewall memorial and the site of the first PFlag meeting too!
