Alexander's apartment is cozy and comfortable. It is close to the subway and ideally located for traveling into the city easily and quickly. Street parking is limited and can be difficult to find depending on the time of day. There is no washer and dryer on site, but there is a laundromat close by. It is a safe area with lots of stores and restaurants within walking distance. The neighbors overall were quiet and respectful of each other (no issues with late night parties or anything).
We had some issues with the cleanliness of the apartment overall when we arrived and ended up doing some cleaning of our own upon arrival. The kitchen has some items but is missing others (i.e. no can opener or cheese grater or mixing bowl). The host was pretty responsive when we messaged him with questions or concerns. The apartment is best suited for no more than four people, as the couch is not large enough for sleeping on and there is no extra bedding.
