We stayed at Amal's place for a few days and, overall, it was a good experience. The duplex is just like it looks in the pictures and it was big enough for 4 adults and 1 child - it is big enough for more people as long as they are okay with a less comfortable sleeping situation. The place has some character with the neat things on the walls, etc.... which made it cozy. The bathrooms are remodeled so that was pleasant, but the water would randomly turn cold for a few minutes at a time. The wifi and t.v. worked, and there were kitchen supplies that enabled cooking/eating. The neighborhood was decent, and it's close enough to walk to central park, but it was a bit of a drive to get to midtown (considering traffic). The two biggest areas for improvement are: 1) getting a lock for the patio door because the door doesn't lock and that definitely made us nervous during our stay, and 2) improving the climate control because the AC makes the downstairs really cold but not the upstairs - so either the people downstairs are comfortable or the people upstairs are comfortable.
