This is a beautifully remodeled building that is safe and quiet. It is near a laundromat, a grocer, the trains and Central Park is only two blocks away. The beds are comfortable in the two bedrooms provided. There are plenty of linens, pillows, towels and a fabulous kitchen with lots of glassware and dishes. The owner was very kind, responsive and helpful and allowed us to come in early and to leave a little late which was greatly appreciated.

The drawbacks were that it only has one frying pan and a small pot with lid, few eating utensils and no utensils to cook with such as a spatula (to go with said frying pan) or a big spoon to stir with. We had to improvise a lot and buy some things to make it work. A cookie sheet would be nice along with a large pot and baking dish. There were no hot pads or kitchen towels or dish clothes. We like to rent homes so we can cook and not eat out all of the time, so this was disappointing. If you are not cooking, this would've been just right for you. There was not a trash can anywhere so a bag had to be hung over the drawer pulls. There was no soap in any of the dispensers, no TOILET PAPER and one small roll of paper towels. There were two containers of shampoo and conditioner that were filled with water that just need to be thrown away in the one shower. It has two bathrooms but only one shower. There is not a Blue Ray or DVD Player which is also a simple fix.

The blow up bed for the 5th and/or 6th person is okay but not for two people so one had to sleep on the couch which was a bit much for a week. There should also be a heavier blanket for this bed as the throw blankets werent enough.

My impression is that this is a new rental so things can certainly be added. Eti was wonderful to work with and if these things were added I would give it five stars.
