Immaculately clean, uncluttered, appliances are all new, everything works well and is very comfortable. The apartment is as described and as pictured and the neighborhood is fascinating and has everything one needs a short walk from the apartment. Good idea to research the area a bit to be sure it's what you're looking for. Definitely what I was looking for. As noted in the description, Fanny lives above with two small children, and you hear them, so that's worth bearing in mind. Put differently, it's a great place if you're coming with kids. Fanny checked in several times (unobtrusively) to ask if we needed anything, and responded very quickly to our few requests . For New York, the price/value ratio is unbeatable.
