Mind the conductor's announcements while on the train as sometimes the train runs express and will bypass stops.

Essentials
The building also has it's own washer, dryer which takes quarters. If you're staying longer, I recommend The Soap Box.
They offer pick-up and delivery service (about a 2 day turn around for wash & fold). You can use my referral code -839B4 - and get $5 off your first order.
