The place is the basement of a home. If you have ever stayed in a basement you know what to expect. Usually 1 entrance, lower ceiling height, and not as much natural light as a first floor apartment.
Ok now that you know what a basement apartment is, time to see why this one is such a great bargain. It has good light, it's a complete gut renovation, the plumbing works well. Circulation is great. There’s an elderly man next door with two cats you can temporarily adopt . It’s private with a eat in kitchen-bar Stove,oven,microwave,coffee pot, and toaster oven. The room is large enough to hold two queen beds and the living room has a queen futon. So the space can hold more than 4 comfortably. The host are excellent and are bilingual. They have young well behaved children.
I definitely recommend, I hate to keep saying it’s a bargain but I live in Manhattan and I know what to expect for a place like theirs here.
