Michelle and Evelyn's place was a good choice for us to stay on this portion of our trip. While it is a bit of a ride on the subway into the city (45-60 minutes), the station is the first on the #7 line, so you can always get a seat. The apartment is newly renovated. Or, more accurately, is in the process of being renovated. While everything was OK for us, it was clear that they were not quite ready to open for business.
First, the bedroom was great! It is a good size space and the layout is good. The pictures are accurate. The beds are brand new and very comfortable. The original wood floors have been refinished and look nice. The walk-in closet is huge with plenty of storage space. The bathroom has been nicely renovated and the water pressure and hot water are abundant.
As I mentioned earlier, the renovation of the common spaces is still a work in progress. There was minimal utensils and dishes in the kitchen. For a place with 4 Airbnb rooms, there were only 2 glasses, a few spoons, a single pot, one skillet, and a few bowls. While we made do, there were times we wanted more dishes to warm up our food. The stove was old and the cooktop did not look like it had been cleaned in a long time. In addition, there was no vent hood above the stove, just a pipe sticking out of the wall.
Overall, the value for the price was great and we would consider staying here again. Hopefully by the time we return, the kitchen renovations will be complete. That would make this an almost perfect space for the price.
