We had a gorgeous stay at Alex's cute-as-a-button railway style apartment. We loved how it was decorated, and were very fond of her affectionate tabby cat, Barnabus. We also liked feeding the ever-curious neighbourhood cats in the backyard through the window.
The walk to the L train is easy, with shops and restaurants along the way. The M train is a little further (10 minute walk), though late night walks to/from could be a little dodgy for some people.
The kitchen was very well equipped, and the bathroom was clean and had everything you need. We liked the chaise-lounge for lazy afternoons, and the speakers had a cable for listening to our music. The proper bed is big and comfy, and the room gets lots of morning light, which can't really be avoided. If you want to sleep in, bring a sleeping mask and maybe ear plugs (there were a couple fairly noisy mornings, and the bedroom is right next to the front entrance of the building which has a loud door). I would recommend this place for longer stays as it's well priced and Alex was really good with communication. Though we didn't get to meet her in person, her neighbour Anna was there to greet us, give us some recommendations, and say goodbye at the end. Great stay!
