Michael was very helpful in providing instructions about how to get into the apartment. The apartment itself is a small self-contained studio in the basement of a nice building - bigger than many NYC hotel rooms, though not very spacious. The bed is incredibly comfortable, and shower excellent. Cooking facilities quite basic (kettle, microwave, fridge) but perfectly adequate for our needs, i.e. just breakfast and occasional snacks. Extremely quiet location but very close to lots of shops, restaurants etc. The area to the west towards Graham Ave. and beyond is great (Williamsburg) but going east less so. We really enjoyed our stay and also found it very convenient for Manhattan, just a few stops on the L subway line.
