I really enjoyed relaxing in the apartment and I tried a bunch of the places around, like Kung Fu Tea and some takeout places. It was nice and quiet at night which I appreciated.
I also liked that it was right beside the Grand St. subway station and that the street was lit since I was staying by myself. I never really felt unsafe or anything (just stay aware of your surroundings if you’re walking at night, but that’s everywhere in New York).
The apartment had good wifi which was great for my work and zoom calls. It’s a bit of a hike to the rest of the city if you’re not used to long commutes. I had a great time!
