This appartment has some good things and some other really bad. I will explain all pros and cons we found.
Localitation: it's far from Manhattan, like 40' by subway, but the station is just 300 m away from the house. So for the price is ok. During night it can be a little dangerous, but nothing use to happens. Some times the subway doesnt work (usually happens in NYC) so you should take an Uber for around 20 $.
Room: the bed is comfotable and we fit on it (we wasn't sure), and it's probide with a fridge, an iron and a table. It's not very warm, spetially during night, when the heating is off.
Noise: our room had a window to an exterior patio, so noise wasn't important. But you could here everything from inside the flat. Steps on the upstairs, people talking, the bathroom,...
Bathroom: here is where we had the problem. The bathroom was very dirty. I know we are 6 people sharing 2 restrooms and it can't be perect, but it's required some daily cleaning to keep it clean. It smeels orine, there was hair everywhere, the bath plate wan't clean,.... We complain about it and Kevin tried to "fix it" but the cleaning wasn't enought.
Kitchen: the appartment owns a coffe machine and a toaster, so is it possible to have breakfast (or even dinner) at home. We had a problem because we bought some food and other people from the appartment took it, so i reccomend to keep it on the room.
So, to conclude, it can be a good opcion for saving money if you don't mind the noise or the dirtiness. But if you do, maybe is not the best. Is a nice appartment only needs maintenance and a better insonorization from the inside..
