The best thing about this rental is the location (8th and 46th). It is so close to most of the Broadway theaters which is so nice if you are going to shows. Despite this location it was amazingly quiet. When you turn down this street, the vibe suddenly changes to a somewhat quiet tree lined street with brownstones. It is hard to believe you are only 2 blocks from Times Square. Our adult family of 6 had a wonderful stay in this unit despite sleeping arrangements that really arent suited for 6. There is a twin blow up mattress which was fine. The sofa does NOT pull out. There is a futon but you can barely sit on in comfortably the springs are so bad, sleeping on it would be impossible. Hopefully the hosts replace this soon as it would make a huge differance. We would stay here again with a group of 4 in a heartbeat (with 6 if the futon is replaced or a new blow up added). If you are going to many shows, book this unit.!
