For the space you get in New York. The price is great. Everyone has their own room. And it is spread out beautifully . You will need public transportation for pretty much every activity you do but the train is nearby and there is always an Uber available. If you need food, toiletries, things of that nature. It is easy to find in the area you are staying in. As far as walking distance. There is no elevator just FYI but this is normal for many places in New York.
