The apartment is great for whoever needs a basic place to crash at night. The neighborhood is not a central location, it takes 30 minutes to downtown Manhattan and one hour to Williamsburg. Dan and Ethan were nice and communicative hosts and they helped us with small issues that occured during our visit. However having 8 people in the apartment was a bit challenging because there weren't enough kitchen utencils. There is a Marshal's right around the corner which was good for a shopping spree.
