Firstly, Alexandra is a great host. She communicates quickly, gave numerous recommendations in the local area and provided easy to follow instructions for checking in.
The apartment is just as advertised with some nice holistic and spiritual touches. Alexandra’s personality certainly shines through her apartment.
It’s in a quiet area of New York which, combined with the comfy beds made for a good nights sleep. Air con quickly cools the apartment down too!
This apartment provides great value for money, giving you easy access to Manhattan on the J and M trains from Marcy Avenue. However, if you want to be right in the middle of things this may not be for you. The walk to/from the Subway is through a slightly rough/messy looking neighbourhood but it’s only ten minutes and honestly we had not even a hint of trouble whilst we were there. I would definitely recommend staying here if you want to explore NYC.
