This apartment is great. The hosts were great very welcoming and helpful with our bags and letting us leave our luggage until our flight in our last day. They were friendly and helpful when needed but also gave us our privacy. The flat had everything we needed. It has great access to the L train at only a 6 minute walk and the 1 about 9 minutes. Store down the road for basics you might've forgotten but otherwise not much in the area but she does warn you about. Note it is a pleasant and quiet neighbourhood which as two women we felt comfortable walking around at night in but it is near the end of the L line which feels like a bit of a trek after a long day of waking around Manhattan. It's a great base my only very minor issue would be that it got a bit hot in the bedroom/living room and the windows did not stay open. Thanks!
