We stayed 4 nights at Mark’s place and explored New York from there. It’s pretty close to the metro which takes you directly downtown. The area where the apartment is has great restaurants and bars where you can have a quiet evening after a busy day. The apartment is very spacious, and the room offers a lot of space for your stuff. The bed is very comfortable and there are two bathrooms, which gives you a lot of flexibility. The two dogs are very cute and well behaved and add a homey atmosphere to the apartment!
