Review Score: 8

Summary: We were visiting our family and found this brownstone close by! The location is perfect for walking to various sights, restaurants and Wonder Bagels (the best in NJ)Very conveniently located!The reason we did not give it 5 stars is 1) the heating unit is old and kept us up at night with the banging of the pipes and water running through the pipes. After three nights, we shut it off at night (it stayed warm all night) and only ran the heater during the day. We also ran the fan only on the bedroom A/C unit and that helped with outside noise. 2) there is only a washer in the unit, no dryer. 3) to get to the units, there is a circular staircase you must climb. We enjoyed our stay and the neighborhood and would recommend it for future rentals.
