This place was great! We were so glad we picked Brady's place over any in Manhattan, as the neighborhood was really pretty quiet for the amount of what was happening in walking distance. The location was so convenient to EVERYTHING! (subway, organic markets, coffee shops, restaurants). The bar below was never annoying (which was a concern since it was noted in the description); in fact we preferred people chatting at the tables outside when we returned, over a desolate street entry. Plus it is a nice bar with great people. The apartment interior was clean and charming, however the entry and stairs rundown (but in the process of updating). It is an older building, and with charm comes some quirks. The shower was small, BUT fantastic water pressure and plenty of hot water. The kitchen was open and offered a feeling of a gathering area (easy to cook, plenty of pots and pans). The bedrooms were amazingly comfortable beds in a tighter setting due to furniture placement; and other than the window AC units, it was a quiet sleep with little to no outside noise. The 3rd bedroom/TV room was not really comfortable furniture; BUT a nice large TV (I would recommend bringing your own Amazon firestick as the channels were weak). It was also a great room to keep luggage/items corralled. The A.C. worked great, with a table fan to help circulate the cool air to the TV room. Brady's personal touches made it feel homey. To us, it felt like the typical artsy apartment you would find in NY or Paris. We would MOST DEFINITELY stay at Brady's again. It was a great Air BnB experience. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy Manhattan, Brooklyn, museums, culture, foodies, stand-up comedienne, music, etc. Priced right for a great visit!
And this is coming from two older women who felt safe and comfortable getting around.
Note: The only problem we encountered was as it being an older building, the electricity load can be unstable. Must be aware to avoid blowing a fuse by turning off A.C. units temporarily while using a blow dryer. It happened to us twice, BUT was addressed rather quickly and easily rectified. Only mentioned so your prepared.
Overall: A+
5 star rating.
