This apartment is a prime location. Less than 2 blocks from the subway, closer to the water and restaurants. Place was spacious, and despite being a railroad style home, still got a decent amount of natural light when the blinds are raised.
The place was clean, had everything I needed for a 10 day stay. Hot water runs quickly, no critters, and vey warm during the winter (I slept with just the flat sheet and was comfortable).
If you're a light sleeper, bring some ear plugs. The location is wonderful, but right on top of a popular breakfast spot so there was one morning where I woke up at 6:30 because a loud group of people were chatting downstairs, and I could hear 80% of their conversations clearly. This isn't Alex's fault, just something I want to point out for folks who might be more sensitive to noise.
