Wonderful apartment at walking distance to many sites in New York (Times Square, Broadway, Central Park (that's a bit of a walk, but doable). The host communicated clearly and the apartment has everything that is needed. We stayed for a week and it was a wonderful base to explore New York. We stayed as a family with two kids (8 & 10 years old), who stayed on the sofa bed in the living room happily. There is a cute coffee shop across the street, as well as other places to buy food. The views of the Hudson and the city are breathtaking (we particularly enjoyed the hourly light show at the Empire State Building).
