Irena's place was a gem! It was easy to get to, even with luggage, just a couple of blocks from the subway station. The bus stop that takes you up and down town is located right at the end of the block. For amenities, there is a Morton Williams supermarket at the corner that provides good pre made food along with regular groceries. The neighborhood is safe and clean.
Irena was a great host! She was very communicative, responsive, and considerate. The room and the accompanying private bathroom was immaculate, well lit, and clean. We also appreciated the small tokens of hospitality that she left of chocolate, coffee, and tea. Coming in and out was a breeze. We highly recommend Irena's apartment for any visitors to stay and look forward to staying there again the next time we are in town.
