Super affordable place to stay near Manhatten for the week!! My two teenagers and I stayed at Jesse's place while my daughter was attending a writing group for the week on the Upper West Side. We were right in the middle of two subway stations (One traveling east side of Central Park and the other the West)... about a ten minute walk to both. The subway station we used most often had a Whole Foods and Starbucks just outside...very convenient on our way out or coming home after touring NYC for the day!
