Location is good, subway is in 3 min, airport and Manhattan is also easily reachable. Room was a little old style but clean (and this is the most important thing). Common bathroom was also clean. Basic things are provided (iron, kitchen staff, towels, good wifi). If you spend most of your day in Manhattan, for evening rest is totally ok. Area is a little noisy at night but for us it was not so problem as after whole day walking in NY we were enough tired to have a rest in any noise :). We could not see Marylyn under our 4 night stay but hosting was fine anyway :) Thank you! If you are at first time in NY this apartment will be a good choice.
