My daughter and I had a great stay! I am a middle aged mom with a bit of a bad hip. The two flights of stairs to the apartment weren't too bad and the futon was very comfortable. My daughter slept up in the loft and was very comfortable. There are groceries etc nearby and the key pick up was easy. We really enjoyed our New York trip. The apartment is also close to "both" of the subway lines which means getting down to the 9 11 memorial via subway was easy. Cabs to a play were about $12. We were lucky to get good weather and take walks in nearby Central Park. We so enjoyed our stay.
