This is a very convenient spacious apartment, close to excellent options on the upper West side for dining, entertainment, and proximity to public transportation. The host is responsive, as was the person who let me into the apartment. It was spotlessly clean. Value was excellent. it is a first floor apartment but windows are secured with bars. Be sure to ask for instructions on how to operate the hot water heater for showers. The kitchen as well stocked. It was a convenient place to stay for my work trip.
