I would stay at James' place every time I visit NYC if it was available. My wife and I came for a business/pleasure trip. The location is perfect - right down the street to a plethora of restaurants, bars, etc. Transportaion is easy to get to also - be it Uber/Lift or a subway station about two blocks away. Very spacious for two people. A little oasis from the busier parts of Manhattan. I thought the street was very quiet at night for Manhatten and we had no trouble sleeping through the night (and we are regular visitors to the city so have experienced real noise levels). James was also easily reached for some suggesti Me around the neighborhood for some groceries (right down the block), and some fun more local restaurants. Place was very clean, very well decorated and laid out, and one of the best places we have stayed. Definitely loved it and would highly recommend!
