This is a cute apartment in a great neighborhood. There is a 1 train subway station almost right outside the door - very convenient. As others have noted, there is a bit of noise from a loud nearby nightclub. However, both bedrooms have white noise machines, and with those on, we slept fine. It wasn't a big problem for us. The bathroom could do with a bit of a facelift, but it's serviceable. The hosts are very nice. They sent the keys well in advance, along with wonderful instructions for everything to do with our stay as well as recommendations for neighborhood dining, etc. This was a girl's trip for myself and 2 of my daughters. We felt very safe in the neighborhood and the building.
