I stayed for about 1.5 months while doing an internship at NYU hospital for joint diseases. This place is awesome, close to Union square so you can get any train you'd need. Tons of shops, bars, restaurants and a trader Joe's near by. I used the kitchen every other day and it had everything I needed. Pamela will make you feel at ease. Don't be discouraged by the curtain for a door, you have all the privacy you'd want in a prime Manhattan location.
