Marios apartment was really nice and apparently renovated. It was clean and provided with everything you would need.
Communication with Mario was very nice as he responds quite fast and elaborate.
The apartment is in a quiet neighborhood, though a 40 minute ride with the R train away from Manhattan. You can find some grocery stores and restaurants within 5 minutes walking distance.
I would recommend this apartment to anyone who prefers a quiet neighborhood over the noise of "the city" and doesn't mind about the further distance from Manhattan. If I come back to New York, I would again consider Marios apartment.
