The place is exactly as depicted, and since I was in the area beforehand I was able to stop by and see for myself before moving in. As this is a basement room, it doesn't have much natural light, but it is clean and cozy and the kitchen/living room upstairs are both very well-lit. The apartment is a very short walk from the G train. In terms of convenience for getting into the city, this location is hard to beat (25-30mins to Union Square).

Jamie and Steven are both friendly, welcoming hosts, and their cat, Howard, is ADORABLE – loved his company during my stay.
