Marcus' apartment is absolutely wonderful. The pictures don't really do justice to what a large, welcoming space it is. I stayed for a few days to visit my adult children who live in the neighborhood and this was the perfect space for me to rest and rejuvenate after a long day of traipsing around NYC. It's especially great that the apartment is pet friendly because my kids didn't have to choose between spending time with me or their dog. (Guess who would have lost that fight?). The beds are comfortable, the bathroom is clean and the kitchen had what I needed. Be aware that the apartment is around the corner from a busy street. If you are (unlike me) a light sleeper, you might be happier if you bring ear plugs or listen to white noise. That said, I slept just fine in the gorgeous master bedroom.
Marcus is an excellent host. He responded quickly to my questions and even made it possible for me to check in a little earlier than scheduled when traffic on the BQE was not as hideous as usual.
Basically, I can't say enough good things about Marcus and his apartment. I will definitely be asking to stay there again.
