New York Apartment - Studio in Upper West Side (NY-14832)

It was everything it needed to be. The staff was helpful and friendly, and the location was fantastic.

This apartment is not a bad option for a few months, because it is not easy to find a place to live in Manhattan (or even in Queens or Brooklyn) for a short term. The apartment itself is more than enough for a short term stay, however it isn't the best option if you are going to be more time.

One of the major problems with this apartment is the noise from the street, because the isolation of the rooms are far away to be enough, for example you have a lot of noise of the trucks and cars since the 6:30 a.m., and also a loud music the weekend nights.

Another problem was that sometimes the bedding and the towels were not very clean.

Clean apartment, comfortable bed, quite spacious bathroom. Downsides, kitchen not sufficiently equipped, not shutters hence quite bright.

The apartment building changed landlords during my stay, a fact of which I was not made aware. There was some mix up as to when rent was due, to whom the payment needed to be made, and the total cost.
I enjoyed the apartment's close proximity to the B and C subway lines, but had a difficult time making it home on late nights and weekends, when uptown B and C trains don't run. There were two permanent tenants that proved to be bothersome at best and disturbing at worst; the monthly tenants, like myself, were kind and quiet. There was much construction on the building during my stay, although not on my floor. Unfortunately the hallways were dirty for the duration of my stay, although the individual, completed rooms were clean. I enjoyed the A/C when it worked. (The single window unit had to be replaced during my first week of residence.) There furnishing and amenities were great. Overall I had a positive experience, but would not choose to return for another two month stay.
