We were three adults and a 3-year-old staying together in this apartment. Diane made sure we felt welcome by establishing communication before we arrived and ensuring we had all necessary contact information for when we arrived. The listing was as described, and we were thrilled to find a blender in addition to add to our meal options. The two air conditioners installed in the windows were on full blast for the duration of the stay due to the heat, and we were certainly relieved to have them! The neighbourhood was, as a friend residing in New York put it, "an up-and-coming trendy place to be but still a bit messy." We felt safe walking around during the day and in groups at night, but I don't think I would have walked by myself at night as a lonely female. Regardless, everyone we met in the neighbourhood was respectful and helpful and the businesses were clean and professional inside even if there were interesting characters outside. It wasn't really much different than riding the subway with a plethora of interesting characters anyways. For a good price and quick access to the subways, groceries and restaurants, the apartment was definitely a good place to stay. We were absolutely satisfied and would recommend it.
