This is a great place for people who are either used to New York tenements, or not particularly picky travellers. Nothing about this place is unusual for old east village tenement buildings, but for those not accustomed to them, it might be a bit of an adjustment. The apartment itself is lovely and just as advertised — small, clean, simple and sparse. And the stairwell and external bathroom are small, a little dilapidated and dirty. I’m used to these buildings and was totally fine with it. If you’re picky about that kind of thing, it’s probably not the place for you. The location is stellar and you can’t beat it, especially for the price. Ultimately, it’s a great deal for those prioritizing location and affordability. I’d stay again.
