Excellent location, very close to subway and highway.
8-10 minutes walk to Central park. Many restaurants in the area and a nice supermarket pretty close (Whole food market) where you can grab a lunch and eat in Central park.
Feeling safe neighborhood and quiet for NYC, free parking in the streets, but be careful about the days.
Sebastian is nice and very helpful with his suggestions, try the banana pudding and the gelato place!
Hope to go back in the future :-)
