My sisters and I enjoyed our stay at Julia's apartment tremendously. Her place is centrally located and walking distance to stores and lots of restaurants. It is right next to a bagel shop and only a few blocks from the Subway. The kitchen was well stocked with tea, coffee, jam, peanut butter and Nutella. The living room is much larger than shown in the pictures, with high ceilings too. It is a very comfortable place to come home to after a long day out in the city. There is no street noise, just some noise from ventilators outside the windows. Maybe bring earplugs if that might bother you. The place was very clean and newly remodeled. Julia is a fantastic host. Very accommodating and great communication. I highly recommend!
