The place was nice and homey. There are a couple steep flight of stairs to go up to get to the apartment, we were able to get our luggage up. But might be harder for an older person to get up and down the stairs.
I didn’t feel fully comfortable/safe in the place after a few days. Largely due to the window to the patio couldn’t be locked. It seemed other apartments could also access the patio. This could be a bit stressful for a lone traveller as it could be easy for someone to open it from the outside. I think we used a chopstick at night to “lock” the window.
The area itself felt a bit unsafe because it wasn’t very well lit at night. But it is 7-10min walk from the nearest subway stations. We would walk 10mins to Williamsburg to get dinner and breakfast, which was great.
