It All Works
The important things were great (i.e., we had a parking space as promised, the apartment was clean with no weird/unpleasant odors, the beds were comfortable with nice linens and good quality towels, and there was a working coffee pot). We live in a house built in the 1870's and keep our heat at 68 during the day and 65 at night so a little cool and leaky windows don't bother us too much. However, on our first day when the weather was coldest the thermostat indicated the temperature ranged from 64 to 66 in the warmest/farthest from the leaky windows. No matter what we did with the thermostat it was kind of cold and we regretted not bringing our thickest robes, sleep socks, and pj's. I would be concerned if the temperatures outside were below the low of 28 that we saw during our trip. Luckily it warmed up outside and the temperature was fine inside the apartment after that
We were surprised by this response when we asked about getting hand towels and/or more than 4 bath towels and 4 wash clothes for 3 people for 4 days since the info on the apartment said:
Towels Provided
Fully provided and provide extra if needed.
This was the response:
It seems like the cleaning provided you with what you are entitled to. If you need more towels we will be charging you for that. You have a drop off Laundromat that is very cheap at the corner of Tompkins and Hart 30 seconds from the house. You can leave your laundry in the morning and pick it up at night.
Please let me know if you have more questions!
Cheers,
Johny.
We would have brought hand towels from home if we had known that we had to pay extra and would only be given 4 bath towels and 4 wash clothes. Not a big deal just a little misleading/annoying.
Would have liked a big bowl for salad and to mix eggs (there was a whisk but no large bowl), a cutting board, measuring spoons and a measuring cup even though we mostly just made breakfast. Otherwise the kitchen had the basics.
The bathroom with the tub/shower also needs a shower mat. One of us is a little unstable on their feet and always felt in danger of slipping while taking a shower.
We were glad the others in the building were pretty quiet since there is NO insulation or sound proofing and could hear even normal talking and not very loud music playing.
Overall we always felt safe and it is convenient to subway. We would add the Chinese take out place (cash only) as a good option if you want to eat in.
