nice apartment! it's a little further to manhattan than expected. with the metro it takes at least 40 minutes, and if you want to go to times square you have to add another 20 min and you have to change metro along the way. but we traveled to manhattan every day, which went well, just had to calculate a little extra time to travel. the subway runs every 10 minutes. there is a grocery store nearby, which has most things. otherwise the apartment is practice, easy to make food there, and nice size for 2 people
