This is a spacious apartment in lovely old tenament building with a lot of character (tall doors, creaky floors, beautiful crown molding and tiled ceilings). There's a lot of natural light during the day and the space is very tastefully decorated.
The area itself is very lively with loads of cafe's and local restaurants. Bodegas are nearby as well as 24 hour taco stands and a Trader Joe's.
There's a lot of intertesting local history around (so check out walking tours in the area) and Gem Spa is nearby for egg creams.
Subway access is good-less than 10 minutes of walking. We never felt unsafe in the neighbourhood, enjoyed the pop up markets in the weekend. Alfredo and Ceasar were very kind, friendly and welcoming I hope our paths cross again!!
