This is a great place to stay for a visit to NYC. It is only two blocks from Central Park and a reasonable walking distance to the Strand Bookstore, the Theater District, Kalustyan's Spices, and loads of excellent restaurants (for Ethiopian, don't miss Queen of Sheba; for Korean, make sure to try Hangawi) and quick fixes (bagels, pizza). Allyson's apartment is clean, uncluttered, has a super comfy bed, and has all one/two need(s) for a relaxing time. Allyson and her husband were highly responsive and made arrival and departure simple.
