Staying at Trevor’s place was the perfect way to end our USA trip. The metro stations are all 10-15min walk and take you everywhere in NYC you need to go. There are loads of shops and restaurants around. And the place is just as seen in the picture and as described. Pretty, comfy, clean and with all the amenities you need for a vacation stay.
My partner and I were a bit scared coming here after reading all the comments regarding the neighborhood but at the end we did not feel unsafe walking from the metro at night or during the day. There was one incident, though, on Halloween, when we were arriving home late in the night and there was a large group of youngsters fighting each-other just on the corner of the street, hitting literally everyone who came on their path (although it seemed like it was two groups fighting each-other). That was the one and only time we felt unsafe, and we are used to all safe/unsafe neighborhood. The place is still worth to visit and rent, it is a great price for a great location. If you do feel a bit unsafe I suggest either taking an Uber (pool or X) from the metro station to the apartment and/or using Utica metro station (we found it was the best and the safest - A and C trains run there).
