The location is great -- across the street from lovely Ft. Tryon Park, near a station for the A subway line and bus stops, and near commercial districts with grocery stores, restaurants, and laudromats. Three notes of things that didn't bother us at all, but might bother some. First, there are some stairs involved (a few to the outer door, and a half-flight to the unit door). Second, the bathroom door is held shut by a sliding deadbolt, and its doorknob doesn't work -- again, not a problem for us. Third, the apartment is filled with the host's memorobilia, and pictures reflecting his interests and family -- to us that made it feel like we were truly his guests and one of the many positives of the unit, but we know not everyone would feel that way. Todd checked on us regularly via messaging, which was helpful and appreciated. Overall, we were very happy with our stay.
