Emma was great at welcoming us and providing advice/tips on getting around the city since we were first time visitors. The apartment looks much better in person than the pictures in the listing as you cannot really see just how spacious and nice looking the apartment is until you arrive. Emma showed us around the apartment and made herself available if needed, but also gave us as much privacy as we preferred which was nice. We had 3 little children in tow with us and the apartment was great for them.

The apartment is ideal for using the subway to get around the city as there are 2 subway stations within 1/2 mile of the apartment. We drove a vehicle to the apartment and used the subway after that; we got lucky and found parking right in front of the apartment (which is free), but be warned street cleaning comes through frequently which requires you to be on alert to move your vehicle if needed.

Immediately down the street in front of the apartment is Riverbank State Park which I used to run on and I passed by tons of benches, shade, and kids playgrounds.

The only improvement I would suggest is with the WIFI at the apartment, it was a very weak connection throughout our stay.

Thanks again, Emma!
