This apartment is clean and quiet. It's in a lively NY neighborhood, so there is some noise (nearby trains) but it feels like the NY life that I like to experience.
There's a Citibike dock a couple of blocks away, which is my preferred way to get around NY when I'm not walking. There are tons of great restaurants and bars within walking distance and the neighborhood is friendly.
I was in NY for business and found the location of this apt to be perfect. The wifi works well, there's plenty of space to work and check in was very easy. Re: business, I'd contrast this apt with a mid-town hotel by saying that it's got way more space, same or better wifi, a big refrigerator and small hotplate cooking area with all the utensils, cookware you'd need plus a coffeemaker, plenty of clean towels...
But maybe not the upscale, chain-you-know-exactly-what-you're-getting hotel experience. And it's a 4 flr walk up.
For me, it felt like I got to experience real life when I wasn't working, which made the trip so much better.
The bed's comfortable, the place is clean, the shower works nicely AND THERE'S SO MUCH SPACE. Thanks Mo and Dom, for a great experience.
