Our first stay to travel into nyc and Stan gave us good instructions for how to take the gitney and subway. Apt felt very secure and private and we never heard the other tenants. Exploring the neighboorhood we got take out our first night and were out walking; local people were friendly. Air conditioner white noise blocked any street car noise and we slept on a super comfy mattress. Roomy bathroom with a great shower. Everything felt clean and comfortable. Stan was quick to respond with any questions. Thanks so much!
