I don't know much about New York yet or the areas. Despite this, there where plenty of things to walk to, an awesome bar called Sweet Janes on the corner of the street, a police station in the other corner. Not knowing if that was a factor but I felt safe. Also there was a YMCA were I got three day free pass to work out at the gym. I uber everywhere and it took no time to get into Manhattan if you are looking for location. The apartment was small but fit 2 people and a little dog comfortably. Clean updated bathroom and small kitchen with fridge, stove and oven, and some cutlery and dishes. The mattress was brand new. Huge tv to entertain us with movies when we didn't feel like spending a New York fortune by going out. Patrick, his family, and his cute dog never bothered us or made us feel like we where being watched or judged. Everything was super comfortable. Luxury? Not so much but definitely had its own charm, updated and clean. I highly recommend this place and found it worth the price most def!
