Pros and Cons! This very cute apartment is centrally located, charming and a little funky, and great for the price. The kitchen is so well stocked with cookware that you can make almost any meal you want. The bed is super comfortable.
On the negative side, the futon/foldout couch, which was the bed for our daughter, has two huge holes under the upholstery, where the inflated cushion has deflated, so you are essentially sitting on the wooden frame and some lumps. Not comfortable for sitting, although our adult daughter found it comfy enough to sleep on. This is an old building, with some leaky windows, and in the mornings it was so cold, we turned on the oven to warm the place up. Just like my first apartment in Manhattan! Until this morning, when we set off the smoke alarm by doing this.
Communication with Chris was not super speedy; he seemed to have a lot going on, so we didn't get a clear answer about leaving our luggage before check-in time. We just went ahead and did it anyway. Likewise, although we had said our daughter would be using the fold-out couch, there was no bedding for this or a third towel and washcloth. Chris delivered the bedding the first night, but we had to wait a day for the extra towel.
Nevertheless, this sweet little apartment won our hearts with its charming, tidy setup, perfect location and great kitchen.
