Jamilya did not send any check in information but was quick to respond when I reached out the day before our arrival. She was flexible on check in time, which we appreciated. The apartment is spacious but a bit dark as the lighting is not that great. I had to do hair and makeup in the living room but I think a fresh set of lightbulbs in the bathroom would help with this.

The bed is memory foam and a bit firm but comfortable enough after a long day of sightseeing. She has a window air conditioner which we used at night to help regulate the temperature. There are heaters in the living room, bedroom and bathroom but you have no control over the temp so it can get pretty warm. During the day, we kept the bedroom window open to help with this.

The apartment is situated in an building with maybe 10-20 other apartments and is located on the first floor. It is a secure building with buzzer for guests.

It is a short walk to the subway stations (about 10 mins), about a 45 min Uber ride to Time Square area, 30 min Uber ride to lower Manhattan. Be sure to use Uber pool if you want to save some money on those long trips.

Overall, our stay was nice.
