We were a family group of three staying 10 days in NYC seeking accommodation out of, but near, Manhattan to avoid its crazy prices and cramped living spaces. Mitchel Manor met our requirements being only a 5 minute walk to the subway stop and taking just 20 minutes to lower Manhattan and about 40 minutes to mid town. We found the accommodation to be accurately described and Nicole responded promptly to any queries and was very friendly to deal with. We would readily recommend this apartment.

Some tips for visitors. The nearest subway is Kingston Throop, Turn right on leaving the apartment and then immediately right onto Marcus Garvey Glvd followed by a right on Fulton street. The subway is just past a McDonalds. Even if you are only staying for a few days it is worthwhile to buying an unlimited 7 day subway ticket for about 30 dollars as individual trips cost 3 dollars. Take the uptown C train to Manhattan. Late night trains do not stop at Kingston Throop. In this case take the downtown A or C train to the next stop at Utica. This is only a little further from Mitchel Manor, about 8 minutes walk. Make sure you visit the Brooklyn bridge for its spectacular views of NY, particularly at night. The C and A trains stops close by at High St. (keep a close lookout for the turn off for the bridge as it is very easy to miss)

I would also recommend trying two restaurants close to the apartment. Turn right on Decatur St and left on Lewis ave. Peaches is almost immediately on the right and Saraghina is a few minutes on the left. Both have a great atmosphere, reasonable food and are great value. There is a supermarket close by on Marcus Garvey and a larger one on Fulton street just up from the Kingston Throop stop.
