We are very pleased we found this place for our trip to The Bronx. The location was great for what we wanted to do. The area is quiet with trees and birds, and there are stores nearby to grab a handful of groceries. It seemed like a great value in this city. A couple things to note: if a person has trouble with low ceilings (claustrophobia), mustiness or scents, or hearing the family overhead, this is not the place for you. It is a basement apartment with all such features.
