I had a great stay at Gus and Holly's place. The room is really cozy and both of them are super friendly. The area has lots of good connections maximum 5 minutes walk from the apartment. Also there are lots of great bars, restaurants and stores in the area. Even though we were five people sharing the apartment there were never any issues with waiting for the shower or so.
The one negative thing is that the window in the room faces a really busy street (Grand St), so it might be a bit loud at times, even during night.
