We enjoyed our stay and felt we'd made a good choice. It's a comfortable walk into the city through Central Park, about 15 mins downhill all the way and then from there a steady 20 mins walk to the waterfront. Uphill through the park going back but not too bad and there are buses.
Being out of the city in peaceful surroundings and having car parking space was a real bonus, whilst being in easy proximity to all the touristy things.
And the apartment is vey nice and had everything we needed.
