If you want a taste of what it is like to actually live in NYC, stay here! The apartment is smaller than most Americans are accustomed to, but with two bedrooms, a comfortable living space, kitchen and bathroom, it is quite roomy by NYC standards. I rated the other amenities at 4 only to highlight how amazing the location is. The west side provides easy and quick access uptown and downtown via 10th ave, as well as easy walking distance to midtown. Hells Kitchen is a little less busy than other areas, but still has great coffee shops and restaurants. The side streets are tree lined and charming. The back courtyard is calming and serene.
