This lovely apartment is quite convenient to the subway, a mere few blocks walk. We never felt unsafe in the neighborhood, even walking back late at night.
The rooms are a good size, large kitchen, fully stocked. Comfortable bed, futon in livingroom. The noise from upstairs carries quite well, so if you are a light sleeper earplugs are a must (but that's probably the case in all of NYC, I would imagine). Being winter, we didnt explore the backyard but it looked like it would be wonderful in better weather. All in all, well worth the cost, no complaints, highly recommend.
