The apartment was nice and quiet even though the subway train is so close by! It's just a 5 min walk to the subway and only takes one train to get into the city! The pictures are a little misleading as there is an actual couch and dome chair not just a futon in the living room. As well as the fact that there are only pans/sauce pans and no pots or baking sheets but we managed and bought what we needed. Our only real complaint is that the furniture/beds were a bit uncomfortable. I would highly recommend this airbnb for a short trip as the pros do out way the cons and the host was very understanding and accommodating throughout our stay.
