The Good: spacious & characterful, ideal for a large group. Near a subway, easy access to Mid-Town and beyond. Central Park is a short walk. Restaurants are within easy reach as well as grocery stores, from a corner shop to Wholefoods.
Not so good: If you like fresh air don’t book this property, all the windows are sealed, and you are asked not to open them.
The staircase is steep, not ideal for the young/old. The lights on the stairs were not working which made it dangerous. We did report this.
We had no heating in the front top floor bedroom, also reported but told to press the button on the thermostat harder. It made no difference.
Good luck with the dishwasher, the bottom tray does not come out smoothly hence all the chipped crockery.
If you use the kettle, take it off the gas with a cloth as the handle gets red hot .
Not all the gas rings work. A house manual would be a good idea. Basic maintenance needed. Would we book it again? No, too expensive for what we got!
