Stephen's apartment is perfectly suitable for a short or even moderately long stay. Location, less than a half block away from the 1 line subway, is a real plus! The apartment is small, cozy we would say... if you are not familiar with the Alexa system, you'll have some fun until you get the hang of things. Stephen is a superb host; always willing to rapidly answer questions, resolve basically anything that does`t seem right, and offer suggestions or give helpful tips about the area. There is a really good supermarket about three blocks away, a laundromat about a block away, and great fruit stands right on the corner (actually two or three corners)—so we popped out of the subway station at whatever hour and picked up all sorts of excellent 'goodies' on the way 'home'... really great! One thing that would have been appreciated is closet space; there is a complete dresser available, but hanging some things in a closet would be a plus. The kitchen was well stocked, so apart from a few things we brought along, we ended up being able to prepare quite a few decent meals at home... a pleasant stay—Thank you Stephen!
