The apartment is exactly like it appears in the listing - clean, comfortable, and in a good location. Assiati was friendly and helpful with answering questions and providing details. One of my travel mates had a minor packing disaster, and the neighbor helped out greatly by receiving an overnight package for us. This was such a bargain vs. trying to stay in Manhattan. Easy to get to (a bit of a hike to the subway, but if you're in NYC plan on walking!) Neighborhood was really quiet with plenty of small shops around to get necessities. It was just a really nice place to stay, with a great host family, and plenty of good advice in Assiati's notes. Definitely try the pizza place listed!
