First off, the view from the balcony was stunning both during the day and night. It was rainy and cold so we didn’t spend much time out there but it would be great in the summer! The apartment is in a nice safe neighborhood and only a few blocks from beautiful Seward Park.
The apartment is nice but the furniture is a mix of what seems like IKEA and hand me downs. The bed was comfy! My daughter stayed with us a couple of times and found the futon very uncomfortable. The kitchen was generally well stocked but I am short so had to stand on a chair to reach some glasses and mugs. The blinds in the living room are older and touchy so we just left them up. The blind over the bed was broken, but I did inform the owner and she apologized and stated she would replace it when she returns from her trip. There were crews working on a major remodel downstairs and I was a bit concerned that they had access to our apartment but they never came upstairs and were reasonably quiet and very respectful.
