The apartament is great, confortable, full of amenities also in the kitchen like coffe, tea, snacks, etc. Even the room being in front of side walk is not a problem, it's quiet ... it would be a problem to me ... but not. Kathleen is a great and acessible host answering in minutes any question . The neighborhood is great next to Subway, shops and restaurantes like Target, Stop and Shop and a Mall and others places. It's about 45 minutes from Times Square not too close, but not a problem. I deffinitily would stay in Kathleen's apart again.
