This place is a great value for the city. It is small, as accurately represented in the listing, but makes a good home base if you're mostly going to be out exploring the city during the day. It is within 3 to 15 minutes' walking distance from several subway stations/lines and a convenient bus line, so it's pretty easy to get anywhere in the city. Lola is very responsive and provides suggestions for how to get around. Because the apartment is right across the street from a neighborhood sports park (basketball courts etc), it can be noisy sometimes - I brought earplugs and that did the trick.
