The unit is very close to lots of shopping, the subway station and great restaurants. BUT: when we checked in, we could not get in our unit the code was incorrect, but luckily the manager was in the building and she quickly changed it and insured we got in. The unit was in need of a good cleaning the desks in the room had dust buildup, there was hair in my sons bed, the carpet in the living room is badly soiled, the pots in the kitchen need to be replaced as they are old and scratched and very cheep, the knives have rust spots on them, and the wine glasses were dusty, and had to be cleaned before using them, the baseboards are very dirty and the walls need to be cleaned of dirt and black marks. The overall building reminds me of a University frat party, its loud at night with people streaming in at all times of the night when the bars close, I would not recommend families with young kids or older families as there are no elevators. This building is for the young 20-30 age group.
