The apartment is located in a nice neighborhood with the 7 subway right out the door, a great diner down the road and access to all kinds of local restaurants and bars. It is very clean and the bed was very comfortable. Clean linens and a fresh towel were provided and use of the bathroom and lounge/kitchen was shared with other guests staying in two other rooms. You get your own keys so can come and go as you please which is very useful in a city like NY. Nia greeted me with her mother and helped me carry bags up stairs. Everything was very clean, shower was great, kitchen had a large fridge, microwave, stove and kettle. I rate this place very highly and would gladly stay again as it is tremendous value for money. Only negative would be the noise from the subway right out front and the rather spartan furnishings but it's a great deal overall. Nia was very responsive to questions and seemed eager to do wahtever she could to make my stay pleasant.
