GREAT spot! We enjoyed the central location very much. It very was easy to get to sub stations, restaurants, shopping, museums, etc, in no time at all. Communication from the host was timely and helpful. We would definitely stay here again, and in fact hope to.
A minor note about some of the complaints on other reviews... New York is a just a noisy place. That is not the fault of the location or the host. In fact, this apartment was relatively quiet in comparison to other places I have stayed. I didn't hear a peep from the neighbors in the building, and the apartment was far enough away from large roads to minimize traffic noise. I'm sure that being a light sleeper and being unaccustomed to the environmental noises of New York makes for an unpleasant stay, but that's not the fault of the host, folks!
