Just spent 9 days in NYC and used this as our lodging for the entire trip. This place is very nice and was clean. The master bed was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on. The linens on the bed and towels were very good quality. Pete's dad met us on our arrival and provided the keys. He then gave us a tour of the place and pointed out some necessary information. There are 2 subway stops about .5 miles away. One being the L train. It will take you to Manhatten in about half hour. The neighborhood is "interesting" and I suspect you get an idea of how true New Yorkers live. We walked to the subway at various times and never felt threatened. It was nice to have a washer/dryer for a quick refresh of some laundry. The master bedroom has a nice bathroom with a large shower. The main bathroom is nicely equipped also and it has a bath tub. The air conditioner works very well and we never heard a noise from the streets or neighbors. It is also very nice to have a direct access elevator that takes you right into the apartment. The pictures represent the apartment very well. This was an easy exchange and we enjoyed ourselves while there.
