The kitchen has a double oven and an ice maker. I will be happy to answer any questions.If you decide to have a small gathering there is an extra charge depending on size and what is involved. If you plan a party and you reserve the space for 20 and 40 show up you will be charged $50.00 per person. This sounds harsh but I have had guests that used my home to charge people to come in and it turned into a free for all. If you have an event here there will be someone on the premises during the party. If anyone smokes in the apartment you will lose your security deposit. If you want to use the rooftop for a small get together than that must be discussed with me first. If a couple or family is staying than you have full access to the beautiful roof.
