The place is pretty much as advertised, though very bare bones. A few little things, such as hand soap, a bottle opener, a information booklet with shower instructions, etc., would make the stay more comfortable. None of those things are all that important, but just to set expectations, it's the kind of place with plates but no bowls. The apt is fine for what it is, in a quiet building, a five minute walk from the A and C line subway which is very convenient. There are coffee shops, restaurants, and small grocery stores nearby. The host responded very quickly when I had an issue. Another review mentioned there was no AC, but there was a small window unit when we stayed, which was greatly appreciated. We did not find the bed to be very comfortable, but again, it was fine for what it is.
