The apartment is in a quiet and safe location with good access to public transport and the waterfront. The check-in / check-out process was very straightforward and the hosts respected our privacy but were on hand to answer queries etc.

A slight downside is that the apartment does not let in too much natural light, and could get fairly cold in the evenings. However, there were extra blankets and an oil heater that helped with this!

We would recommend this to anyone thinking of choosing a cheaper option than staying in Manhattan :-)
