Great apartment! Spacious is certainly true. And there were a great deal of little luxuries, such as a wireless stereo and computer monitor to hook up with your laptop. The bed had been made up, and there were towels to use in the bathroom, which was lovely.
Within a few blocks you can find multiple grocery stores and coffee shops, and if that isn't enough for you, there are bus stops and a subway stop close by as well. I had to commute into the city everyday, and I didn't find it much of a hassle at all.
Since Marc was out of town the time that I stayed at the apartment, I communicated via text with him, and his friend was the one who showed me around the apartment and picked up the key afterwards. His friend was very willing to work with my schedule and spent time showing me how to use the tv and connect with the wifi, which was nice of him.
