I used to live in New York in the same neighborhood so it was very easy for me to navigate. Julia's place gets good light during the day, the neighborhood is quiet and it's very easy to navigate to other parts of the city. As with any ground floor apartment, you may be able to hear the upstairs neighbors and there were a couple of large silverfish, but that is pretty unavoidable and not Julia's fault! This is a great value and great location plus I really appreciated having easy access to a washer and dryer, especially in the midst of the pandemic. I would recommend this airbnb!
