Highly recommend the location of this apartment; very close to the A express and C local subway trains as well as buses to DUMBO. We felt comfortable and safe exploring the neighborhood and discovered many great places to eat and drink. Local grocery stores were plentiful and close by; as was the laundromat. The host was very attentive to our many queries and the check-in process was simple and efficient. After a long day of walking around NYC - the hot shower was excellent as were the fluffy towels provided.
