Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
The apartment was clean, comfortable and convenient to most of the places we wanted to go, such as the state capital and Empire State Plaza, both of which we walked to. The down side is that it is located in a noisy neighborhood on a busy street. Worse for us was the fact that the people above us sat out on their balcony until well past midnight and chatted loudly, making it difficult for us to fall asleep.

Cute little one bedroom, clean. Neighbors smoked a lot of pot so the apartment stunk everyday. Could provide more towels for people staying more than two nights. Walls of apartment very thin, bring a noise maker to block out noise or use ear plugs because neighbors were loud most nights. Close walking distance to many restaurants and bars and we were there for an event at MVP arena and could easily walk there every day, however the neighborhood to get there was a little sketchy on some streets. Full kitchen was nice to do meals, dishwasher, laundry, all good.

Long Term Stay

My stay was absolutely phenomenal! Communication with the host was clear and efficient. I stayed here for 10 weeks during a summer internship and it served all of my needs. During my stay, I had a minor issue with the tv and the host was extremely responsive in fixing the issue. The area the apartment is located in is perfect for long-term or short-term stays. There are coffee shops, restaurants, a grocery store, and a beautiful park all within walking distance. There is also a bus stop right outside of the apartment building. Additionally, everyone in the apartment building was friendly and I never felt unsafe while living there. I cannot recommend this apartment enough, and would absolutely stay here again.
