Adorable apartment, convenient location
My teenage daughter and I had a lovely extended stay (2 weeks) at this apartment. It is exactly as described and the pictures are accurate, it’s even a bit nicer in person. The efficiency kitchen has everything you need, the beds are comfortable, and there is plenty of storage space. Lots of charming details.
The only negative of this place is the street that it’s on. It’s next to an auto mechanic and a job placement agency and as a result there are a lot of idle seeking men that congregate on the sidewalk or in front of the bodega, often drinking and smoking. The street itself is more of an alley and the building is not like the other charming ones nearby, it’s quite a bit shabbier. (There are also several homeless people who sleep on the steps of the church across the street, we saw Red Cross workers tending to one who was completely unresponsive one night.) So, my daughter and I had to navigate comments and catcalls, sometimes quite specific ones, on multiple occasions. We took to going the long way around the block. There was also a loud fight with screaming expletives in front of the building one Saturday night.
So the apartment itself is great and it’s nice to be walking distance to the most touristy places but not in the middle of the huge crowds but for women traveling alone it’s good to be aware of the locality.
