The apartment's location was fantastic -- close to Central Park, easy subway and bus connections, lots of good restaurants around. Also, the apartment was quiet, even with the windows open. Overall, it was a decent stay, but check-in was a little off with the lockbox across the street and the other hiccups below.The beds were new and firm, but comfy and pillows were comfy too. The table was minimalist, but worked and there were plates and utensils and pans (no pots), as well as minimal kitchenware (toaster, french press, water boiler). No microwave. One awkward thing -- the only outlet in the kitchen was on the wall opposite the countertops. We boiled water on the bathroom sink b/c of the lack of outlet. Other negatives -- no air conditioning (despite the listing saying it was there), the coin laundry advertised is across the street, there are several sets of stairs that make managing a stroller difficult. The biggest oddity -- lack of other seating. The loft is useless -- there's a couch up there, but the height is too short for sitting and the ladder up did not feel safe. We didn't attempt it. That space is really not functional. Also, it was lacking other creature comforts such as an extra blanket, washcloths, a shower curtain liner, and there was no trash can (I think this is being addressed). Also, it was mostly clean but the tub had some hair in it when we arrived and my son found a random piece of candy under a bed that wasn't from us.
