Pat's place was very comfortable and well located. I walked most places, and his apartment is very close to Central Park, Broadway, Times Square, The Met and MoNA, without being too noisy or lively right outside. Hell's Kitchen is also a great area for food and nightlife.
The subway was close by and despite the area, this apartment was quite quiet and cosy. Pat was lovely to chat to and all the amenities and bathroom were clean. I had a great time!
Do keep in mind that the apartment is up many flights of stairs, as everyone has said.
