Everything was as described in the add: The room was very clean and spacious and so was the bathroom and the rest of the apartment which we were allowed to use as much as we wanted. We were even provided extra towels, sunscreen, ear plugs and blow dryer.
The only thing that was a disappointment was the neighborhood. The add said "up and coming area" and it didn't quite seem like that to us. The area is primarily residential and if you are expecting some cozy cafés, cool bars and nice restaurants this doesn't seem like the area (yet). It consists mostly of corner stores and chain restaurants like Subway, Popeyes and McDonald's. So to us it wasn't a neighborhood where we felt like hanging out. Fortunately the apartment is located near the subway that will take you to Lower Manhattan in 20 minutes and the B46 bus that will take you to Williamsburg in 30 minutes.
