This is a cozy, comfortable 2 bedroom apartment with a fully equipped kitchen. The unit is a second floor walk-up in a very quiet, safe building. (The apartment is in the back so especially quiet.) The neighborhood is mostly residential with plenty of eateries, half a block to the new 2nd Ave. subway, and a short walk to Carl Schurz Park and the East River Promenade. Communication with The Local Stay landlord is super easy and they are very responsive. A couple of minor things needed fixing upon arrival and they were addressed immediately. I definitely recommend this place!
