I was a bit wary at first about the location and the lower ground level. I must say that none were a problem. Location is great, you have access to 2 lines that get you anywhere in Manhattan for a 10-15 min or I suggest just rent a Citibike to get to the station.
Apartment was great, very spacious and clean. Full Kitchen, with a nice bathroom and comfy bed. You don't get a view but everything else makes up for that. You have Steinway 5 min away on foot that you can find anything you need, food , shops or buy a SIM like me if visiting from abroad with a good selection of everything at all times. Even late night grocery stores.
I was greeted by Kostas' mother that lives upstairs that is an amazing woman. Always willing to help for the smallest thing, even brought us home-made traditional Easter bread. Traditional hospitality is hard to find these days.
I fully recommend the place and would definitely stay again if not staying in Manhattan.
