Julia's loft is located in a beautiful neighborhood, very quiet and safe. There are several places to eat and supermarkets nearby, and Julia provides a very useful and detailed list of tips. I really appreciated it. The apartment is very close to the subway (line A and F), only a few blocks away. I was very concerned about the noise of the trains but the earplugs that Julia provides allow a quiet and deep sleep (at least with the skylight closed). I could not met Julia but she was very prompt in communication. The other tenants in the house were often outside, I have not met anyone, so I had all the privacy I wanted. Very restful! Would come back.
