Over all, this is a good value for the price. The photo is a bit deceiving as it shows the apartment to be upstairs. It is actually a downstairs basement apartment with very little natural light. The neighborhood is nice. I felt safe walking around. Go one block over and it changes, but that's typical in NY. There was an issue with the cleaning person, and we could not check in by 4p, but were told the place would be ready by 7p. The space plenty big enough for a family of four, although the pull-out beds on the sofas were really uncomfortable, even for teens and they'll sleep most anywhere. All you could feel were springs. The floor was sticky and the bathroom smelled like a cat had been there before us. Pets are allowed which is awesome. We loved the outdoor space. Our host left us some breakfast items, coffee and plenty of towels. Checkout is at 12n which is great. Good communication with the host. Like I said, for the money, it was a good experience.
